Forbes, Esther, 1891-1967. Morgan, Edmund S. Riley, Stephen T. [Revere, Paul, 1735-1818]
Paul Revere's Three Accounts of his Famous Ride. With an Introduction by Edmund S. Morgan.
Publisher: A Massachusetts Historical Society Picture Book, Boston 1961. [34] p. incl. facsimiles; 28 cm. "Letterpress by the Anthoensen Press, Portland, Maine. Collotypes by The Meriden Gravure Company, Meriden, Connecticut." Foreword by Stephen T. Riley, Director. "'Having a little leisure, I wish to fulfill my promise, of giving you some facts, and Anecdotes, prior to the Battle of Lexington, which I do not remember to have seen in any history of the American Revolution.' Thus Paul Revere began the letter to Jeremy Belknap which retold the story of his historic ride. If Jeremy Belknap, the moving force in the founding of the Massachusetts Historical Society, had not encouraged Revere to write this account, and then seen to it that it was printed for wider dissemination, it is possible that the details of the famous gallop might have remained relatively unknown. In the spirit of Belknap we now for the first time reproduce in photographic facsimile all of Revere's accounts of his ride. Our fellow Member, Edmund S. Morgan, Professor of History at Yale University, in his lively Introduction evaluates these accounts and the man who wrote them." Stapled in printed wraps, minor stains; good+. Stock#20468.
