It is 1776. The first battles of the American Revolution have just been fought and a large British army has just landed at Montreal and means to push down the chain of lakes to split the colonies. The only thing standing in their way is General Benedict Arnold's ragtag bunch of Continentals, militia and seaman at the bottom of Lake Champlain. This is the story of Kinkaid's first assignment, when he is sent up to the New York woods to advise Arnold in the building and fighting of an inland fleet to stop the British advance. |
