436 Fort Ticonderoga & Henry Knox's Noble Train of Artillery
Matthew Cagle, curator and historian at Fort Ticonderoga with a PhD in material culture studies, guides a brisk tour of the fort's French origins and its role in 18th-century warfare. He traces the chaotic 1775 capture, the logistics of hauling sixty tons of artillery through winter, and how those guns forced the British from Boston. Visit and research resources are also highlighted.
