A Picture Book of Paul RevereAuthor :
Paperback
Published : Saturday 1 March 1997
Description
One if by land, two if by sea.... So began the midnight ride of Paul Revere.
But before he was a member of the Sons of Liberty, before he led raiders in the Boston Tea Party, before he was a silversmith, he was one of nine children growing up in colonial Boston.
Adlers biography traces the life of this famous American patriot with insight into his youth, his family, and his professional life. Some of Paul Reveres lasting fame is due to "Paul Reveres Ride," a ballad written by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.
Child-friendly illustrations of the period help readers see Reveres world, and back matter includes additional details and a time line of Reveres adventures.
