"Had Revere failed that night, America's revolution might have died before it began." Author Kostya Kennedy reveals how history pivoted on a silversmith's midnight journey and the astonishing betrayal by the British general's American-born wife who may have leaked crucial military plans. On the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's ride, "The Ride" uncovers what history books missed: how Revere demanded his own court-martial years later, the massive warship whose timbers still rest in Cape Cod sand, and why a Massachusetts police officer couldn't bring himself to ticket Paul Revere's descendant for speeding near Lexington. Listen as Kennedy shares what he discovered climbing the treacherous Old North Church steeple and why Paul Revere was more than just a man on a horse with a message.
