Could not put this book down! What a ride through American history.

We are all familiar with Paul Revere, and "The British Are Coming." Kostya Kennedy does a deep dive leading up to the ride that Paul Revere and others undertook to warn citizens of the impending British march. While the British had kept this very hush-hush, the Patriots were able to get wind of it, and begin preparing. They were not about to let the British get the jump on them.

I honestly could not put this book down and read through it in one sitting. As a teacher of American history, the Revolutionary War has long been a favorite. The detail and thought that went into this book, and the historical facts were really great to read. It is nice to see historical works that are sticking to the actuals, and bringing some new thought into who might have given the Patriots the information, and why.

Take a look at the daring ride taken that night, and the events leading up to and after.
