The Battles of Lexington and Concord were the first battles of the American Revolutionary War. On April 18, 1775, British Regulars marched from Boston to destroy Patriot weapons and supplies. But the Patriots learned of this, and sent several riders, including Paul Revere and William Dawes, to warn local militia.


The first clash was in the town of Lexington, also known as "The Shot Heard 'Round The World". Here Patriot leader John Parker and about eighty militia fought against six companies of British Marines led by John Pitcairn. After a short engagement, the British marched on to Concord. Revere, Dawes, and Samuel Prescott, rode to alert the militia in Concord. About half way, Revere was captured, and Dawes escaped back to Lexington while Prescott kept going on to Concord.
