Afrter analyzing the illustration by paul rever of the boston massacre, what was his intent?

In the images of the troops and colonists, it appears that the British are

unmercifully murdering the colonists. The colonists look innocent and

helpless, while the British look like cold blooded killers. I would assume that

these images were a colonists point of view of how things happened. The

document made the colonists seem like extremely aggressive protesters that

wanted nothing more, but to hurt the colonists. It also makes it seem like the

British did it accidentally. I would expect this to be the British point of view.

Please mark as brainliest

the completion of the erie canal spurred the first great westward movement of american settlers, gave access to the rich land and resources west of the appalachians and made new york the preeminent commercial city in the united states.
