    About this ebook

    “Quick in the saddle and fast out of town.” Watch one of America’s most remarkable heroes come alive through fast-paced prose and gripping storytelling.

    He’s Famous for his Ride.  He’s Essential for So Much More.

    The story of Paul Revere is the story of the American Revolution.

    Always smack dab in the thick of things, he was an ordinary citizen living in extraordinarily turbulent times. Revere played key roles in colonial tax fights and riots, the infamous Boston Massacre, the Tea Party, the Battle of Lexington and Concord, and even the rati?cation of the U.S. Constitution. In this fast-paced, dramatic account, Paul Revere’s life pulses with energy as author Joel J. Miller explores his family and church life along with his revolutionary contribution as a spy, entrepreneur, express rider, freemason, and commercial visionary.

    “The story of Paul Revere—a hero of Massachusetts, a hero of America—was never more timely. Nor has it ever been better told than by Joel J. Miller. The Revolutionary Paul Revere gallops along with all the drama and intrigue of a great novel, highlighting what makes Revere so essential in the story of America’s founding and its growth as a force for freedom in the world. This is a vibrant, vital, and wonderful story.”

    ?WILLIAM J. BENNETT, Author, America: The Last Best Hope and A Century Turns

      I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It appears comprehensive, yet not bogged down in a large amount of superfluous information that some biographers or historians add to their books. Dare I say this book read as fast as I imagine Paul Revere ride through the countryside?
