The
classic
poem
in
a
newly
illustrated
edition.
Paul
Revere
and
his
famous
ride
were
immortalized
by
Henry
Wadsworth
Longfellow
in
a
poem
published
in
1861,
more
than
eighty
years
after
the
even.
Longfellow
wrote
the
poem
at
the
time
of
the
Civil
War.
He
hoped
that
his
story
of
an
ordinary
citizen
who
comes
to
the
aid
of
his
country
would
stir
patriotic
feelings
and
support
for
the
Union.
He
was
right.
In
face,
if
it
hadn't
been
for
Longfellow,
Paul
Revere
may
have
remained
a
local
legend.
The
poem
fired
the
imaginations
of
Americans
and
a
national
hero
was
born.
This
illustrated
edition
of
the
classic
poem
features
vivid
oil
paintings
by
Monica
Vachula,
whose
research
into
period
and
place
can
be
seen
in
the
smallest
detail.
A
concluding
note
by
historian
Jayne
Triber,
author
of
A
True
Republican:
The
Life
of
Paul
Revere,
explores
the
poem
and
Paul
Revere's
place
in
American history.
