Henry Knox and the Noble Artillery Train

Wayside Inn Grounds

How did a 25-year-old bookstore owner become the hero who launched the American Revolution without firing a shot? Local writer Steven Glovsky explores the improbabilities and inconsistencies of Henry Knox’s story, leading up to his undertaking the transport of urgently needed cannon in the winter of 1775 – 1776.

The Noble Artillery Train
  • 60 tons of cannons moved from NY to MA!
  • Passed through Sudbury in 1776!
  • Forced the British to evacuate Boston!

Join us for a presentation followed by Cannon Firing by Crane’s Third Artillery.

Sunday, February 1
4 PM
Martha Mary Chapel – Wayside Inn Grounds (35 Dutton Rd)
