  • Adventures in Research: The Goldsmith Who Went to War
    2026/06/22
    Aired: Mid-20th Century (Adventures in Research)

    As America approaches its 250th anniversary, this episode looks beyond the famous midnight ride to explore the remarkable life of Paul Revere. In “The Goldsmith Who Went to War,” Adventures in Research traces Revere’s many contributions to the Revolutionary cause—not only as a patriot and messenger, but as a craftsman, inventor, engraver, manufacturer, and problem-solver.

    Beginning in colonial Boston, the program follows Revere through pivotal moments in American history, from growing resistance to British rule to the struggle for independence itself. Along the way, listeners discover how his skills as a goldsmith and mechanic proved just as valuable to the Revolution as his courage, helping support the war effort in ways that are often overlooked today.

    Produced in cooperation with the Westinghouse Research Laboratories, the episode highlights the role of ingenuity and practical science in the founding of the United States, presenting Revere not only as a legendary rider but as one of the early republic’s most versatile and influential citizens.
