Présentation de l'éditeur
If you have occasion to pass through or to visit Lexington, be sure to put up at the tavern about a mile below Lexington Common on a little knoll near the main road. In front of it stand two large elms, from one of which hangs the tavern sign. It is the best tavern in the place. You will find there good beds, good food, and a genial host. The landlord is my cousin. Colonel William Munroe, a younger brother of my old friend Edmund. Sit with him under the trees. William will gladly tell you of the fight.
