They did get credit for it andat the time of the ride Revere was not well known for it, but later on a man named Henry Wadsworth Longfellow wrote a poem that illustrated the triumph actions that Revere took on his ride. Although parts of this poem were inaccurate it was that very catchy poem that transformed this little known figure in America history to a gigantic symbol of patriosm.
