While as of late Alexander Hamilton has been the shining star on Broadway, another close advisor of George Washington's, Henry Knox, has been the Rodney Dangerfield of the American Revolution. Why does Knox get no respect while Hamilton snares all the kudos? Because Henry couldn't dance? But he could, albeit a minuet not modern rap. But while Alex was as famous for biting Burr's bullet as anything else, it was Henry Knox who saved the Revolution by transporting the cannons of Ticonderoga across the New England countryside in the dead of winter to Boston to drive the Redcoats from Beantown.

Aided by Patience Pinckney, a young woman who dresses as a boy to join Ethan Allen's Green Mountain Boys to storm Fort Ticonderoga, Knox is successful in his expedition to bring artillery to the fledgling Patriot cause and expel the British from Massachusetts and to save the rebellion a few months before the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Most of Washington's generals thought Knox's idea was foolhardy but Henry Knox gave verity to the expression, "nothing succeeds like success."

The cover is a portrait of Henry Knox by Charles Wilson Peale which hangs in the National Portrait Gallery in Washington, D.C.
