When people think of a midnight ride to save a city, they think of Paul Revere. Few people know that a 16-year-old girl made a very similar ride more than a year before Paul Revere made his. Her name was Sybil Ludington. Read her story and learn how a teenager rode alone through the dark countryside to save a city. Her tale of bravery may not have made it into as many movies, TV shows, or history books as Paul Revere's did. In spite of this, Sybil Ludington remains as a symbol of what a young person can do if the need arises.
