SUMMARY:Book Club April 22
DESCRIPTION:Henry Knox’s Noble Train: The Story of a Boston Bookseller’s Heroic Expedition That Saved the American Revolution.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMark your calendar April 22\, 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm \n\n\n\nDuring the brutal winter of 1775-1776\, an untested Boston bookseller named Henry Knox commandeered an oxen train hauling 60 tons of cannons and other artillery from Fort Ticonderoga near the Canadian border. He and his men journeyed some 300 miles south and east over frozen\, often treacherous terrain to supply George Washington for his attack of British troops occupying Boston. The result was the British surrender of Boston and the first major victory for the Colonial Army. This is one of the great stories of the American Revolution\, still little known by comparison with the more famous battles of Concord\, Lexington\, and Bunker Hill. \n\n\n\nThis exciting tale of daunting odds and undaunted determination highlights a pivotal episode that changed history. Register here. \n\n\n\nSpecial Guest Announcement:We are delighted to welcome Stuart Lilie\, Vice President of Public History at the Fort Ticonderoga Association\, who will join our discussion to share insights on Henry Knox’s remarkable journey and the enduring legacy of Fort Ticonderoga in Revolutionary history. \n\n\n\nFor Spring 2026\, the Yale Club of Vermont Book Club features a work that is both timely and of local interest. Almost exactly 250 years ago\, Henry Knox transported cannons through frozen terrain from Fort Ticonderoga to Massachusetts to help relieve Boston from the British. \n\n\n\nFort Ticonderoga is a regional gem and\, along with the Ethan Allen associations\, looms large in Vermont history. The 250th anniversary of the “Noble Train” has been marked by extensive reenactments between our region and Boston. \n\n\n\nJoin us on Zoom on Wednesday\, April 22\, from 7:00 to 8:00 p.m. for a lively discussion of the book and the history of the Revolution in northern New England. \n\n\n\nThe Yale Club of Vermont now formally invites all New England Yale Clubs to join us for these virtual book gatherings. Many of our clubs include members spread across remote islands\, mountain towns\, and wooded communities\, where coming together online offers a meaningful way to connect. Alumni from across the region — and others who find their way to us — are warmly welcome. \n\n\n\nRegistration is now open!
