Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Silver Punch Bowl: Made by Paul Revere to Commemorate a Vote of the Honorable House of Representatives of the Massachusetts Bay in 1768 The reputation of the great Boston mechanic, Paul Revere, does not depend solely upon any one of his many qualifications. He was as ardent a patriot as he was an excellent mechanic, and as fearless a post-rider for the leaders of the Revolution as he was a good soldier, bearing a commission as lieutenant from Governor William Shirley, under which commission he served His Majesty King George II. on an expedition against the French at Crown Point. He was a man of many resources; and, as his biographer aptly puts it, "he was an artificer of many trades, who was relied upon by the leading patriots for valuable services in the times that tried mens´s souls."
