SUMMARY:Authors talk and book signing - Ye Trodden Path
DESCRIPTION:The Berkshire County Historical Society’s Melville Press celebrates the  publication of Ye Trodden Path\, a collaboration of local historians and authors Bernard Drew of Great Barrington; Gary Leveille of the Great Barrington Historical Society; Rob Hoogs\, Monterey Historical Society; Ron Bernard\, Sandisfield Historical Commission; and Tom Ragusa\, Otis Historical Commission with a free authors talk and book signing.  \nYe Trodden Path commemorates the 250th anniversary of Henry Knox’s epic 300 mile journey from Fort Ticonderoga\, New York\, to Boston\, Massachusetts\, delivering artillery to General George Washington to defeat British troops surrounding the city. It looks specifically at the sections of the Knox Trail that traversed the hills and valleys of the Berkshires and includes new scholarship by several historians that adds to and corrects previous accounts of the Noble Train of Artillery. The book details the road’s use before Knox came through\, the taverns and people along the way\, and how the road has been re-mapped through some of the towns providing a more precise route. \nThe fifty-six page book includes a a six-foot\, color fold-out map considered the definitive route taken by Knox as researched by Tom Ragusa; it is available  for purchase online or in the BCHS museum shop. \nThis event is sponsored by The Feigenbaum Foundation\,  Massachusetts Cultural Council\, and Housatonic Heritage.
