Description
Listen to the story of Paul Revere's midnight ride, as beautifully illustrated by renowned artist Charles Santore. In 1860, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow wrote this poem to commemorate the brave patriot who rode through Medford, Lexington, and Concord on April 18, 1775, warning American patriots that the British were coming to attack. This newly redesigned edition features Longfellow's original poem alongside Santore's stunning illustrations. The result is a wonderful gift for birthdays, holidays, or a Christmas present. Charles Santore's work has been widely exhibited in museums and celebrated with recognitions such as the prestigious Hamilton King Award and the Original Art 2000 Gold Medal. A beautifully designed hardcover edition of this iconic poem, well suited to a broad range of readers who are interested in American history and patriotic holidays.
