EARLY AMERICAN: The Story of Paul Revere

By

Pub Date: Aug. 26th, 1940
Publisher: Scribner

Story of a great patriot and a great craftsman, a man whose fame rests on more than the ride made famous by Longfellow's poem. His childhood apprenticeship,his youthful success as a silversmith, his association from the start with the Sons of Liberty, leading up to Lexington and Concord, and many other famous exploits. Finally his post-war contributions to American industrial development. Quite a different story from the companion volume, Boat Builder, but equally good and equally important.
