A Revolutionary Moment | Sound the Alarm

Paul Revere was not alone on his midnight ride to warn the colonists of British troops.
In 1775, riders including Paul Revere, William Dawes, and Samuel Prescott warned colonists of British troop movements. In Connecticut, 16‑year‑old Sybil Ludington made a similar ride. Together, these individuals formed a network that helped spark resistance and change history.
