In addition: “Longfellow's family had a connection to the historical Paul Revere. His maternal grandfather, Peleg Wadsworth, was Revere's commander on the Penobscot Expedition.”
Okay, per Wikipedia: “Longfellow was inspired to write the poem after visiting the Old North Church and climbing its tower on April 5, 1860.” So it was the lanterns.
I’m not a historian but my understanding is the same as Claire’s - it was the Longfellow poem that made Revere famous over Dawes or Prescott (or, indeed, Sybil Ludington or her father)
A wine bottle would be bigger (or smaller if it were from a multi-pack), no? And I'm not aware of any Japanese wines (though I'm sure you'll correct me momentarily).
Could also be sake, though. Not that I drink that either.
Until I played one of the Carmen games from 1995 with Lynn Thigpen, and I found a note left behind from one of her agents, I didn't realize that Carmen pays her people too Lol
