The fable of Revere comes from a Longfellow poem written in 1861 and in reality he didn't ride through the night yelling about the British coming. Longfellow wrote his poem on the eve of the civil war to remind people of the nation's history. Somehow the poem became part of history and was put into history books as fact. Revere never finished the ride, his horse was taken away and he was held by a British patrol, but thanks to Longfellow we all know who he is. He billed Congress for the ride and the cost of the horse since it was taken from him and it didn't belong to him. It was borrowed. His one big contribution was the picture on a flier after the Boston Massacre showing colonist getting shot by the British. This was pure Propaganda and was used to incite discontent between the colonist and the British troops.
The ride took place April 18, 1775. The whole ride fable comes from a Longfellow poem. This includes the signal.His most important thing is the flier of the Boston Massacre. He drew the event and it was mainly propaganda made to incite the colonist against the British.Revere was stopped by a British patrol and his horse taken. He never finished the ride, but two men did. They were named Prescott and Dawes. In 1861 Revere came to fame through a poem written by Longfellow on the eve of the civil war. He was trying to write about patriotism and remind people that they were one nation. This poem has been used as history and it isn't.

Paul Revere did not have a twin brother. Many things we are not very sure about, we don't even know if Jan. 1, was really his date of birth!YC
actually April 18 1775 is the day that the two lanterns were hung by Paul Reveres best friend and this is the day he lied about it and said he hung the lanterns the actually day is April 19 1775.

Most people think Paul Revers birth date is January 1st ,1735 but his birth day is December 22,1734 and he was baptised January 1st,1735
They would have been French because his father came to the colonies at 13 from France. Historians aren't even sure of Revere's birth place and date.
