The Story of Lexington and Concord: A History of the Revolutionary War's Opening Battles

Originally published in 1905 as a section of â€œThe Great Events by Famous Historians, Volume XIV,â€ this Kindle edition, equivalent in length to a physical book of approximately 20 pages, tells the story of the first battles of the American Revolution.

Sample passage:
Meantime sixty or seventy of the militia had collected, and about forty spectators, a few of whom had arms. Captain Parker ordered his men not to fire unless they were fired upon. A part of his company had time to form in a military position facing the regulars; but while some were joining the ranks and others were dispersing, the British troops rushed on, shouting and firing, and their officersâ€”among whom was Major Pitcairn exclaiming, â€œYe villains! ye rebels! disperse!â€¦Lay down your arms!â€¦Why donâ€™t you lay down your arms?â€ The militia did not instantly disperse nor did they proceed to lay down their arms.
