Great history lesson and discovering Revere wasn’t a lone rider. Also watching how Boston developed and enlarged over time was so very interesting. Thanks Mason

One of my favorite lesser known Revolutionary War stories (greatly expanded upon) combined with utterly fascinating geographic history! Nicely conceived and presented my man! When and wherever you lose me, i find wonder and delight! Thank you Mason and keep up the great work!:-) 👍🙂🖖

William Dawes is my ancestor. Thanks for sharing this. The story passed down by family is a bit different. Thank you for the detailed account.

Absolutely amazing video. Graphics were some of the best I've seen of movements of both sides during the Battle Road. Funny... I drive through the Minutemen Historical area daily and pass the Bridge Historical Site every day as well.
