The Man, the Myth and the Legacy: Will the Real Paul Revere Please Stand Up?
February 25 at 7:00 PM – 8:00 PM
Paul Revere’s legacy has been both elevated and obscured by his now famous ride, 250 years ago on April 18, 1775. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s dramatic poem replaced what actually happened with a much beloved romantic version. Nina Zannieri, Executive Director of the Paul Revere Memorial Association, and Robert Martello, Professor of the History of Science and Technology at Olin College of Engineering, shed light on the legendary ride, the poem, and the man behind it, revealing the fascinating life of a fabled national hero who witnessed and helped to shape the birth of a nation.
Co-sponsored by the Paul Revere Memorial Association.
