- **Event Description**: “Ultima Ratio Regum:” Henry Knox and the Noble Train

Summer 1775: The new leader of the continental army, George Washington, is faced with a quandary- the British are pinned inside Boston, but without artillery, the colonials were powerless to eject them from the city. Henry Knox, Boston bookseller and native Southie, undertakes an amazing winter trek to Lake George to retrieve 60 tons of artillery pieces and bring them to Boston. This talk will discuss the formation of the continental army and the siege of Boston, but will center on Knox and this amazing march, legendary in US history.
