The Narrative of Ethan Allen’s Captivity written in 1778 by Colonel Allen.

During the Revolutionary War, and after the battles of Lexington and Concord, Ethan Allen captured Fort Ticonderoga in May 1775. This was the first fort taken by the Americans. On September 24, 1775 in Montreal, Canada, Ethan was captured and kept on British prison ships. The British barely kept him alive, then two and a half years later he was exchanged for a colonel and was set free.

Public Banking Institute 2012 Conference, Kick-Off with Ethan Allen

The Inaugural Public Banking in America conference has begun. We have a sold out crowd of participants, an excellent line up of speakers and you can watch all sessions live on Ustream! Ethan Allen gave us a brilliant exhortation last night, sharing his perspective on public banking with the crowd packing Fergie’s Pub in Philadelpha.

Historical Plays, Productions and Entertainment

Mixed Nuts is music from the 20s and 30s, and a cast of independence-minded eccentrics from the Vermont State Hospital who have prepared a vaudeville review on the History of Vermont directed by Dr. Elizabeth Darcy. The bizarre crew of entertainers is lead by a re-incarnated, unpredictable, and loveable Ethan Allen.
