The Experience of Fort Ticonderoga

       We went to the Fort Ticonderoga on the Saturday, and after the trip I got some information from the Internet.Fort Ticonderoga, formerly Fort Carillon, is a large 18th-century star fort built by the French at a narrows near the south end of Lake Champlain in northern New York in the United States. It was constructed by Canadian-born French military engineer Michel Chartier de Lotbinière, Marquis de Lotbinière between October 1755 and 1757 during the Seven Years' War, often referred to as the French and Indian War in the US. It was of strategic importance during the 18th-century colonial conflicts between Great Britain and France, and again played an important role during the American Revolutionary War.
       Professor often mentioned it to us, he said it is a very important battle for America, when we went there and saw the acting we got to know the importance of that battle. I got to know that the former America beated the British by sudden attack, at that time, France also joined in the battle to fight against the British and they won at the end in May 1th 1775.
