The Poem is just that---poetry. It is Not Historical.
He got some of the main points right, but others he did not.
The man who made the ride was named Paul Revere.
However, the lamps were hung in Christ's Church. The Old North Church had a hill by it and no one could've seen the light.
Paul Revere was on the same shore- not the opposite shore- ready to spread the alarm. However, Longfellow doesn't mention his partner, William Dawes or the other partner (whose name escapes me...)
Paul Revere acually failed to finsih his ride, because he was stopped by a British patrol. They took his horse, and let him live.
But lets not forget Dawes! Dawes was the one who DID finish the ride and another professor also rode along.. (can't seem to remember his name).
Actually William Dawes was stopped by The british aswell...The man who finished the ride was Samuel Prescott.......Who was from Lexington and met up with Dawes and Revere as they headed for Concord...They were all confronted by four British troops Paul Revere was captured and his Horse was taken (He made back to lexington on foot in time to see the end of the battle) while Dawes and Samuel Prescott used the surrounding forest to lose the British,Dawes was later captured But Prescott made it (probably because of his intimate knowledge of the surrounding Woods)....
