In the course of doing some research, found this location that has a good portion of the book, Paul Revere's Ride, online.

Can't download or save it, but it is there for reading.  Might be handy for some folks.

Darn, page 257 is not available online. That's my favorite story. There's nothing like a few "Dangerous Old Men" to solve a problem.

That said, I don't want to hear JB tell it, again. When he does it, I get more choked up than when I tell it myself.
