America’s History, LLC will again partner with Fort Ticonderoga to offer a one-day Revolutionary War bus tour.

After leaving Fort Ticonderoga, our tour will start in Bennington, Vermont. On the way to the headquarters of the “Bennington Mob” otherwise known as the Green Mountain Boys we’ll discuss the major characters we’ll meet on today’s tour. Background on the Hampshire Grants dispute, between the settlers led by Ethan Allen and New York officials, will set the stage for what happens on May 10, 1775. In Bennington, we’ll see several landmark sites associated with Ethan Allen like the Catamount Tavern, as the plot to capture Fort Ticonderoga unfolds.
