| Summary | "The Hero of Ticonderoga; or, Ethan Allen and His Green Mountain Boys" by John De Morgan is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around Ethan Allen, a determined leader of the Green Mountain Boys, as they stand against the encroachments of New York authorities claiming land rights in the territory known today as Vermont. The narrative promises an exploration of themes like rebellion, loyalty, and the spirit of independence in pre-Revolutionary America. The opening of the book introduces us to a chilly day in January 1764 in Bennington, where the townspeople eagerly gather to hear an important announcement by the sheriff. It quickly becomes clear that the focus revolves around an edict from the New York governor ordering the residents to submit to New York's claim over their land, which they believe belongs to New Hampshire. As tensions rise, Ethan Allen boldly confronts this authority by tearing up the proclamation, signaling the beginning of resistance. Allen's courageous actions spark intrigue among the townsfolk, setting the stage for his rallying of the Green Mountain Boys to protect their rights and livelihoods against external challenges.
