Description
|
|
|
|
He was one of America's first folk heroes—inspiring Longfellow's famous poem of 1861—but beyond the folklore of his "midnight ride," Paul Revere was a man at the center of the American Revolution. This program examines his complete legacy: this master silversmith who led the Sons of Liberty, risked death as a courier and spy, helped organize the Boston Tea Party, and used his smithery skills to engrave powerful propaganda that enraged British rulers. It also chronicles his service as a Continental Army colonel during the war and his prosperous post-revolutionary life as an early American industrialist.
