Description: Longfellow was America's first poet to be revered in his lifetime--both at home and abroad. His epic ''Paul Revere's Ride'' made Revere the stuff of legend, and the poem became a symbol of American culture. He also introduced many European masterpieces of literature to America and was considered a pioneer in the teaching of modern languages.
