    Improve listing Presented by

Please join us for an illuminating presentation on General Henry Knox by our Curator Bob Kane and Attorney Doug Rowe. Knox is well known as the twenty-five-year-old Continental Army officer and former Boston bookseller who brought the canons down Main Street, on their way from Ft. Ticonderoga to Boston (described in this interesting letter), but he was also born in Boston and was later the first US Secretary of War.
