About this book
Vermont: A Study of Independence is by Rowland E. Robinson. The contents list names chapters on the highway of war, the wilderness during the French and Indian Wars, the New Hampshire Grants and the Green Mountain Boys, among others. The text says a site was chosen in the southeastern part of the present town of Brattleboro, and in February, 1724, the work was begun under the superintendence of Colonel John Stoddard of Northampton, by Lieutenant Timothy Dwight.
The text says the fort was ready for occupancy and was named Fort Dummer, in honor of the lieutenant-governor of Massachusetts. The text says Ethan Allen arrived at Bennington, his once burly form gaunt and worn by the cruel captivity from which he had just been released. The text says that such a sudden downfall followed the peace that, before the end of 1815, full-blooded sheep sold for one dollar each.
