This talk continues the journey of Henry Knox, the 25-year old Boston bookseller who, against considerable odds, somehow oversaw the transport of 59 pieces of artillery from Fort Ticonderoga across the Hudson, over the Berkshires, and across the length of Massachusetts to the American army camped outside of Boston. It was those cannons that finally forced Lord Howe to abandon Boston and sail off to Halifax, bringing at last a successful conclusion to the eleven month siege that had begun in the aftermath of Lexington and Concord. Join in and celebrate that ‘Noble Train’ of artillery that gave Americans their first major victory of the Revolution.
