Paul Revere's Ride
by David Hackett Fischer
"When we were in Lexington and Concord, enjoying some of the reinactments and tours, 3 different people- a ranger, a docent, and a re-inactment participant all recommended the same book when we asked which book they would suggest reading to avoid some of the myths and legends. It debunks a lot of the history gruel served up in some schools."
