Friends Paul Revere, A hero of the American Revolutionary War, Paul Revere is famous for his "midnight ride" of April 18th, 1775, when he sounded the alarm that British forces were moving against American colonists. His fame is due in part to the 1861 poem "Paul Revere's Ride" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow http://poetry.eserver.org/paul-revere.htmlhttp://poetry.eserver.org/paul-revere.html Paul Revere, was a prosperous and prominent Boston silversmith, who helped organize an intelligence and alarm system to keep watch on the British military. He served as a rider for the Committee of Correspondence, and between 1773 and 1775 Revere relayed messages about British troop movements from Boston to Philadelphia, New York and Hartford. Paul Revere to William Dawes set out on April 18, 1775 to warn Samuel Adams and John Hancock of an impending British invasion, eluding British soldiers along the way. Paul Revere When British general Thomas Gage was about to move against revolutionary-minded colonists in Massachusetts, Revere and William Dawes were given the task of alerting the colonist rebels. Paul Revere. Revere's efforts as a correspondence, his services during the war for independence, and his later success as a businessman in Boston and Canton, Massachusetts, made him a local hero. Paul Revere, Following the war, Revere returned to his silversmith trade and used the profits from his expanding business to finance his work in iron casting, bronze bell and cannon casting, and the forging of copper bolts and spikes. Finally in 1800 he became the first American to successfully roll copper into sheets for use as sheathing on naval vessels.
