Who Was Paul Revere?
Who Was Paul Revere? | Roberta Edwards
3 posts | 2 read | 1 to read
In 1775, Paul Revere of Boston made his now-famous horseback ride warning colonists of an impending attack by the British. This event went largely unnoticed in history until Longfellow celebrated it in a poem in 1861. So who was Paul Revere? In addition to being an American patriot, he was a skilled silversmith and made false teeth from hippo tusks! This biography, with black-and-white illustrations throughout, brings to life Paul Revere's thrilling ride as well as the personal side of the man and the exciting times in which he lived.

Today I went with my oldest to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, which was spectacular (although some pieces we wanted to see were not on exhibit & the contemporary gallery was closed). The amazing thing is that with our local library card we could get in for $10 each (we won‘t discuss how much parking was). It was a great day & got to see some pretty amazing pieces

Very interesting read. I never would have guessed that the poem was not so accurate about him.

Cute biography appropriate for older elementary students. The narrative writing style kept my son engaged.
