About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Ticonderoga; A Story of Early Frontier Life in the Mohawk Valley by George Payne Rainsford James. Read in English by Lynne T In the backwoods, lives a man and his two teenage children. He has sought the quiet life on the frontier, although he is a friend to all and never turns away a stranger. One evening, one such stranger arrives at his door, asking for shelter for the night and he is not disappointed. But who is this stranger? He does not give his name or his errand, although he has an aristocratic bearing. As they are about to leave the table, a third man, apparently known to both, arrives and lets himself in to claim hospitality. His mission is to hold counsel with the stranger and he invites their host to join them. Little do these parties know the actions of one of these men will bring heartache and destruction to the others assembled in that house. This is a story of friendship, love, danger and honor. There are references and language some listeners may find offensive. It is Librivox policy to read texts in their original form without censorship.( Lynne Thompson)
