Originally built as Fort Carillon by the French army between 1755 - 1757, Fort Ticonderoga sits at a strategic junction of Lake Champlain, La Chute River, and Lake George.  British forces--including soldiers from Massachusetts--captured it in 1759, and then in May 1775 forces from Massachusetts and Connecticut, and from what is now Vermont took it from the British.  Henry Knox brought sixty tons of artillery from Ticonderoga to help General Washington drive the British from Boston.  Fort Ticonderoga is one of the great historical sites--and museums--in the country, and we talk with its curator, Matthew Keagle about its history and its collections.
