This shout brought out the militia in Lexington and Concord and also warned Sam Adams and John Hancock, two revolutionaries who some believed were the target of this secret British military mission. Armed and ready for the British soldiers to enter their villages, early the next morning, the militia fired the first shots of the American Revolution and pushed the Redcoats back to Boston. A fighting war had begun./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/n
If one ponders the date for long enough, one might see the problem with the words that Revere allegedly shouted. In April 1775 (and for 14 months thereafter), Revere, the militia, and everyone he woke up were still British. Most likely, he shouted /news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/u201cthe Regulars,/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/u201d /news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/u201cthe Redcoats,/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/u201d or /news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/u201cthe king/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/u2019s men,/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/u201d were coming, which all have less catchy rings to them./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/nEmanuel Leutze’s version of George Washington crossing the Delaware River, painted in 1851./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/nWashington/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/u2019s (Perilous?)

Meant to inspire German revolutionaries more than serve as an exact depiction of the event, the painting is filled with inaccuracies. It contains a flag that did not yet exist, ice bergs that did not appear in the Delaware River, Washington positioned in a manner which unnecessarily courted the danger of falling overboard, too much light for the crossing, and far too small a boat (in 2011, Mort Kunstler painted a more accurate version)./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/n
Yet, at the same time, others have praised Leutze/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/u2019s version for sacrificing precise details for a larger truth. His painting has a wide cross section of Americans including farmers, riflemen, a Scotsman, two future presidents (Washington and James Monroe), men from a variety of states, an African American, and perhaps a woman. Thus, it is the archetypal American melting pot and conveys Americans/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/u2019 determination in the time that tried men/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/u2019s souls./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/n
All Colonists were not Team Rebel./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/n We know that 13 original colonies revolted against British rule. In 1776, however, Britain had more than 30 colonies stretching from Canada through the Caribbean. Among those was Florida. Technically, Florida was two colonies (East Florida and West Florida). One would think that the two Floridas would have excitedly joined their neighbors to the north in rebellion as they had only been British colonies for 13 years (having been under Spanish rule from 1565/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/u20131763)./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/nThe two Floridas (Map courtesy of Colonial Research Associates)/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/nYet, when news of the Declaration of Independence reached St. Augustine, instead of embracing the document, the settlers reaffirmed their loyalty to the king and hung effigies depicting two leading revolutionaries that Revere had warned: John Hancock and Sam Adams. The former was the first signer of the Declaration of Independence and the president of Continental Congress, and the latter was a Boston radical, better known today as a brewery owner./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/n
Why didn/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/u2019t the Floridas revolt? Frankly, they disliked the British colonies more than they disliked England. They saw themselves as connected to the British Caribbean colonies, which also remained loyal to the king./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/nThe Legend Behind A Cherry Tree./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/n In myth busting about the American Revolution, one can also tackle George Washington /news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/u2014 he did tell lies, he didn/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/u2019t chop down a cherry tree (that anecdote was invented by 19th-century bookseller Parson Weems), and the once commander-in-chief didn/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/u2019t win many major battles in the early years of the revolution. However, Washington, if anything, is underestimated for his contributions to American history./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/n
Washington did what many of his contemporaries considered to be unthinkable /news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/u2014 he gave up power. Not once but twice./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/nGeneral George Washington Resigning His Commission, by John Trumbell, depicts George Washington’s resignation as commander-in-chief of the Army to the Congress, which was then meeting at the Maryland State House in Annapolis, on December 23, 1783. (Credit: Architect of the Capitol)/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/nWhen the war ended in 1783, Washington was a conquering hero who could have asked for anything. Instead, he simply requested retirement to Mount Vernon. Later, he returned to politics at the Constitutional Convention in 1787 and then was elected the nation/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/u2019s first president in 1789. After serving two terms, he retired again (the constitutional provision limiting a president to two terms didn/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/u2019t come until the 22nd amendment in 1951)./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/nThus, he set a precedent that president would not serve for life but instead would rotate regularly out of office./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/nCarol M.

After all, as one of the declaration/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/u2019s authors and our second president John Adams wrote in letter to his wife about Independence Day, it /news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/u201cwill be the most memorable Epocha, in the History of America./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/u2014I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated, by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival . . . It ought to be solemnized with Pomp and Parade, with Shews, Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the other./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/u201d/news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/n
Other than omitting hot dog eating contests, this sounds fairly accurate. Alas, nothing is ever simple. Adams wrote this prediction on July 3, 1776, about future July 2s (not July 4s)./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/n
On July 2, the Continental Congress voted to declare independence. Two days later, on July 4, its members adopted the Declaration of Independence with John Hancock, the president of the Continental Congress, putting his John Hancock on the document./news/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/152031/n
