Ethan Allen's Bold Capture at Ticonderoga Highlighted
A new authoritative biography by John Pell, Ethan Allen, revisits the 1775 Ticonderoga seizure led by Allen and Arnold. It confirms the famous exchange with Captain Delaplace and Lieutenant Feltham, notes the disputed phrases, and sketches Allen’s frontier career, rivalries with New York and Congress, and his later Vermont dominance. The piece also traces his death, Vermont's eventual independence, and his enduring legacy in American history.
