So how then does this idea that the soldiers are coming and there's a little bit of warning going on, how does that spark into a kind of running battle, a serious military conflict? How do we get to the point where we have this shot that's heard around the world?

Is the idea of the shot heard around the world, is that something that is... is kind of retcon that's created later to point to this as a real moment that will spark what will become the American Revolution, rather than it being, you know, some single shot that was fired, particularly during the battles. It's talking about this battle as a moment.

There was a point at which guns were fired that really kicked off the American Revolution.

And I guess there's an element in which you talked about it's difficult to work out whether Lexington and Concord is a victory for one side or the other or a particular loss for either side.

It sounds like the American militia came out on top a little bit, but it must have felt important for them to portray this as a victory, as an early win against the British forces who normally would have seemed so undefeatable.

It's incredible, I think, when you look at some of these moments and this felt like you've said a couple of times, you know, this wasn't particularly anything unusual the British were doing. They were regularly performing these patrols. The militia had been around for ages. Paul Revere didn't do anything particularly novel.

It's incredible that all of this was able to turn into a moment that would spark a revolution. And I guess, as you mentioned earlier, that leans into this idea that we've had a century or more of tension that has been looking for the cork to pop. And that's what really happens at Lexington and Concord.
