Baloney. Cite a single source that says Paul Revere’s mission that night was anything other than to warn Adams and Hancock and other patriots/minutemen that the British were on the move. One single source.
That night was to warn the minutemen, the point is what he had tried to circumvent the days before.
Paul Revere's written word remains good enough for me. Revere was only one of perhaps dozens of riders that night. Only because of Longfellow's poem does Revere gain such notoriety.
IIRC, Governor Palin's father was a History teacher.
