BOSTON—Don’t let the powdered wigs and oil paintings fool you: Samuel Adams, John Hancock, and the other eventual Americans who changed the course of history were a ragtag band of secretive and sometimes mischievous young radicals.
Just ask Paul Revere, aka actor Michael Raymond-James, who’s part of the cast of “Sons of Liberty,” a new miniseries premiering in January on the History Channel.
There was more to Revere than his famous ride of April 18, 1775, to warn the colonists the British were coming.
The series tells the back stories of the Founding Fathers and their furtive efforts to turn a colony into a country.
