Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Henry Knox Trail, also known as the Knox Cannon Trail, is a network of roads and paths that traces the route of Colonel Henry Knox's noble train of artillery that was transported from Fort Ticonderoga to the Continental Army camp outside Boston, Massachusetts early in the American Revolutionary War. Knox was commissioned by Continental Army commander George Washington in 1775 to transport cannons from captured Fort Ticonderoga to the army camp outside Boston to aid the war effort there against British forces.They included forty-three heavy brass and iron cannons, six cohorns, eight mortars, and two howitzers. Knox, using sledges pulled by teams of oxen to haul these cannons, many weighing over a ton, crossed an icy Lake George in mid-winter. He proceeded to travel through rural New York and Massachusetts, finally arriving to the aid of the beleaguered Continental Army in January 1776.
