Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Memorial Tablet at Ticonderoga: A Corporations´s Gift to History There has never been but the one Ticonderoga in the world. There has never been, and there never will be, but the one Ticonderoga in history. Most of the towns and villages in this land have somewhere a counterpart, somewhere a town or village that in some physical respect is similar. Ticonderoga has none, and on this continent she has no peer in the wealth of her historic renown. That this should breed a patriotic pride, a historic appreciation of the wonderful record of the past attaching to the name of Ticonderoga in its citizens, as individuals and corporations, is therefore not strange. That in the fulness of years it has ripened into this logical result, is evidenced by these generous gifts that are marking in stone and bronze and granite the localities in and about the old town where history of such importance was made, as to make the record thereof a nation´s heritage. That the citizens of Ticonderoga, both in their individual and corporate capacities, have recognized their stewardship of a nation´s history in this town, is a matter of just pride on the part of the Ticonderoga Historical Society, and to commemorate the presentation to it, in trust, of the bronze tablet giving in detail the history connected with the landing on the "Grand Portage," it publishes this booklet.
