Answer 1

Answer:

To revive grievances against the British government, Samuel Adams revived the committee of correspondence, therefore the correct answer is A.  

Explanation:

Answer B describes groups of carefully chosen men to move fast and attack quickly, similar to the concept of the modern guerrilla; the Minutemen concept was created by the militia.    

Answer C, the Sons of Liberty, refers to another military organization created to destabilize the British ruling on the colonies.  The creation of this organization has not been well documented.  

Finally, answer A,   mentions the Committee of Correspondence.  This committee was created by Samuel Adams in November 1772, along with Dr. Joseph Warren and Mercy Otis Warren, in order to communicate the rights of people, and transfer this information to other locations.  The goal was to keep a sense of unity against the Crown.
