Lifelong Learning Lecture: Revolutionary Routes: Henry Knox, Framingham & the Winter Road to Victory

Guest speaker: Anna Tucker, Executive Director, Framingham History Center

Revisit Colonel Henry Knox’s route, transporting nearly 60 tons of captured artillery from Fort Ticonderoga to the Continental Army outside Boston. This journey passed directly through Framingham, where Knox paused for reasons that historians debate. Understand how local landscapes like Framingham shaped this larger campaign. Explore the human and environmental challenges of the journey, the significance of the “Noble Train of Artillery” in the final push to force the British from Boston, and the ways this story has been remembered over generations.
