Praise for Fort Montgomery Through the Years: "...a superb job of researching and writing...the effort alone in gathering these rare photographs and interpreting the ruins is remarkable." Dr. Russell P. Bellico- Historian/Author "Sails and Steam in the Mountains: A Maritime and Military History of Lake George and Lake Champlain" "...technical details of the fort are sound and reflect the extensive research done by the author, as well as the level of detail involved in his repetitive explorations of the site. I consider it a "must buy" for anyone interested in this period of fortifications, or in the history of the northern frontier of the United States."John R.
