Father Anonymous tells the story of America’s forgotten founder Dr. Joseph Warren and his more famous friends, Samuel Adams, John Hancock and Paul Revere. Opening on the day of the Boston Massacre (1770), it closes with Joseph’s martyrdom at Bunker Hill (1775).
With some laughs and tears and lots of good more...
history, Father Anonymous dramatically rescues from obscurity America’s Forgotten Founder and the principles for which he stood – and fell.
Although John Hancock’s signature has stood the test of time, for almost a century Paul Revere languished, mostly forgotten, until Longfellow’s poem brought his midnight ride to the forefront of American consciousness. Sam Adams brew is on the lips of the People across America. And George Washington, of course, has always been the Great American Icon, while his deputy, Alexander Hamilton, now gets celebrated center stage eight times a week.
On this 250th anniversary of the American Revolution, it’s about time to restore our Nation’s martyred Founder, Dr. Joseph Warren, who sent Paul on his famous ride and for two months commanded America’s armed struggle – until he died at Bunker Hill and Washington replaced him.
