We will start the tour on Lexington Green, one of the best known landmarks of that fateful day when the American Revolution began. We will recount stories about that day that are not well known, like the house where Paul Revere was told to be quite as he was spreading the alarm. We will then head toward Concord, making several stops along the way at locations with many other surprising tales that may be contrary to what you might have learned in school. In Concord we will visit the Old North Bridge and learn about heroic and tragic events that took place at the bridge and surrounding area. Time permitting, we will stop at the historic Colonial Inn for refreshments before continuing back to Lexington. On the return leg we will visit several little known but very significant sites with their own stories to tell. We will complete the adventure where we started, on Lexington Green, to talk about the horrific British retreat to Boston. I hope that guests will gain a new appreciation of that historic day, when a group of poorly trained and poorly equipped, but highly motivated farmers and tradespeople stood up to the greatest military force in the world.
