Book Description
"It was a cold, bleak and freezing day, was that second day of the year 1764, in the good town of Bennington. The first day of the year had been celebrated in a devout fashion by nearly all the inhabitants of the district. Truly, some stayed away from the meeting-house, and especially was the absence of one family noticed."

Book Description
The Hero of Ticonderoga is a fictionalized account of the life and adventures of Colonel Ethan Allen, one of the most distinguished officers of the American Revolutionary War. A man of great valor and ability, Ethan Allen's story is at once unique but also quintessentially American. Spending his early decades as a hardworking farmer and businessman of the New World, Allen was instrumental in founding local militias - his 'Green Mountain Boys' - who kept order and peace in a series of colonial towns. These groups would become instrumental to the Revolutionary War effort; Allen, feeling a wellspring of patriotism within himself, summoned his militias and captured Fort Ticonderoga. This fictionalized account of Allen's military service is written in the style of a classic adventure story. Although several of the Green Mountain Boys' personalities and exploits are either invented or exaggerated by the author, the general plot corresponds to the reality of Ethan Allen's contribution to the patriotic cause.

Book Description
The Hero of Ticonderoga or Ethan Allen and his Green Mountain Boys by John De Morgan CHAPTER I. AT THE COURTHOUSE. It was a cold, bleak and freezing day, was that second day of the year 1764, in the good town of Bennington. The first day of the year had been celebrated in a devout fashion by nearly all the inhabitants of the district. Truly, some stayed away from the meeting-house, and especially was the absence of one family noticed. "It seems to me kind of strange and creepy-like that those Allen boys will never come to meeting," good old Elder Baker had said, and the people shook their heads, and were quite ready to believe that the Allen boys were uncanny. But after meeting, when the social celebration was at its height, the absence from the meeting-house was not thought of, and Ethan Allen and his brothers were welcomed as among the best farmers of the district.
