He isn't a hero.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 became famous for many things. Before the American Revolution, he owned a bell-making business. Even though many contribute his fame to his part in the American Revolution, in the Battle of Lexington and Concord, he was actually made as famous as he is now due to Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's poem, The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere.
I'm not sure it's accurate to say Paul Revere wasn't considered an American hero. He was widely admired, and his "midnight ride" to warn the colonists of the arrival of British troops saved lives. He was also known as a silversmith and a craftsman. Perhaps he did not have as big a name as John Hancock or Samuel Adams, but people in Boston definitely respected him and considered him a patriot.
