Paul Revere's Ride by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Paul Revere and his famous ride were immortalized by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow in a poem published in 1861, more than eighty years after the event. Longfellow wrote the poem at the time of the Civil War. He hoped his story of an ordinary citizen coming to the aid of his country would stir patriotic feelings and support for the Union. He was right. In fact, if it hadn't been for Longfellow, Paul Revere may have remained a local legend. This book features vivid oil paintings by Monica Vachula, whose research into period and place can be seen in the smallest detail. Adapted for Brooklyn Blowback by David Kay, MLS.
