Celebrate the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution with author Kostya Kennedy as he discusses his new book, The Ride: Paul Revere and the Night That Saved America. Drawing on fresh research into archives and private letters, Kennedy goes beyond the legend to reveal the complex network of riders and near-disasters that defined Revere’s mission. Join us for a gripping look at the “unstoppable narrative” of the night that set the stage for American independence.
