“One if by land, two if by sea.” Paul Revere finished typing the phrase–destined to be famous–into his cell phone and hit send. His job was done. It would now be up to his fellow revolutionaries to spread the word of the impending invasion and prepare for the British arrival in Concord. Whichever route they chose, the Americans would be ready.
Revere was free to relax and enjoy his fruity umbrella drink next to the pool. He reflected on how when historians wrote about his story many decades from now, they’d almost certainly get many of the incidental details wrong.
