Step-by-step explanation:

The midnight ride of Revere is one of the most famous episodes of the War of Independence. Paul Revere was an American jeweler, engraver, industrialist, and patriot. Most of all he became famous, having timely warned the American militia about the approach of British forces before the battles at Lexington and Concord.
