In honor of April being Poetry Month and April 18, 2015 being the 240th Anniversary of Paul Revere's famous ride, tonight's special episode features both some information about the ride and an elecution style delivery of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's famous poem "Paul Revere's Ride" as taken from the longer "Tales of a Wayside Inn." Laura Ingalls Wilder fans will enjoy hearing an elecution style delivery like Laura's teacher William Reed taught her in Burr Oak, Iowa which is believed to have helped influence her later writing style.
