Revolution 250 Podcast

Fort Ticonderoga & Henry Knox with Dr. Matthew Keagle


Listen Later

This week t Professor Robert Allison welcomes Dr. Matthew Keagle, Curator at Fort Ticonderoga, for a vivid exploration of one of the most audacious logistical feats of the American Revolution: Henry Knox’s Noble Train of Artillery. Together they trace Knox’s remarkable mid-winter journey of 1775–1776—300 miles across frozen rivers and lakes, treacherous terrain, and sometimes snow-choked roads—to deliver more than 60 tons of captured British artillery to General George Washington.  He also tells us about Real Time Revolution, Ticonderoga's plans for commemorating the 250th!
