The Battles of Lexington and Concord recount the events of 19 April 1775, when British regulars marched from Boston to seize colonial military supplies. The narrative follows the confrontation on Lexington Green, the search at Concord and the fighting at the North Bridge.

Militia attacks along the road back to Boston turned a limited expedition into the opening battle of the American Revolutionary War. The book considers intelligence, local mobilisation and competing accounts of who fired first, explaining how news of the clashes transformed political resistance into armed rebellion.
