How does "Paul Revere's Ride" reflect/express American values, celebrate an American hero (obviously Revere because the poem is about him), and how does the poem honor the significant events in American history (I'm assuming related to the Revolution)? Provide quotes/specific examples in your answer. Basically it is asking how the poem embodies American values and celebrates its history. (These are not in my own words)
