Ethan Allen Homestead Book Discussion

Past event
Jan 31, 2021, 2 PM

The Ethan Allen Homestead is constantly looking for ways to make Vermont/American history enjoyable and educational. I hope you will not only consider being a part of this initial effort but also bring someone else along.

Join us virtually on January 31st at 2 p.m. for our very first book discussion with author and historian, Professor Norman Desmarais.

The discussion group will be conducted via Zoom, and it will focus on Chapters 3 & 4 which concern the Champlain and Connecticut River Valley. There is no charge for the book group, but we can offer you the book from our gift shop at a cost of $20. This is less than the retail price, and it includes having the book mailed directly to you.

This Month's Book:
Guide to the American Revolutionary War in Canada and New England: Battlegrounds of Freedom by Norman Desmarais

This volume covers 403 battles, raids and skirmishes of the Revolutionary War in Canada and New England, many of which do not get covered, even in the most detailed history books. The work also covers engagements between French or Spanish troops and Crown forces as well as raids by Native Americans instigated or led either by British officers and agents or by Congressional forces. It provides comprehensive, if not exhaustive, coverage of the military engagements of the American War of Independence. It also aims to serve as a guide to the sites and the military engagements.

If you have any questions about this event, please contact me.
