The British commander was Major General John Burgoyne. The capture of Fort Ticonderoga in 1775 by the Americans under Ethan Allen and Benedict Arnold is captured wonderfully in Kenneth Roberts' book "A Rabble in Arms." It is a must read for anyone wanting to understand the Revolutionary War, and the ascent of General Benedict Arnold as one of the most important American military leaders. He was instrumental in saving the American cause with early victories against the Red Coats, when the circumstances of the American army were bleak and dismal. Most of us only learned of Benedict Arnold as a one-dimensional traitor, without ever being presented with his invaluable contribution to the Colonial Army or "rabble." In "rabble in Arms," one gains a broader understanding of this "traitor" and an intriguing glimps into other lesser known hero's of the American Revolution.
