"A Hero of Ticonderoga" by Rowland Evans Robinson is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The story unfolds in the wilderness of the New Hampshire Grants during the 18th century, exploring themes of settlement, survival, and the conflicts arising from land disputes between the New Yorkers and the New Hampshire grant holders. The narrative centers around Seth Beeman, his family, and their challenges as they forge a new life
on the frontier amidst threats from both nature and other settlers. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to the Beeman family as they journey into the wilderness to establish a new home near Fort Ticonderoga. Seth Beeman, the patriarch, encounters a solitary hunter named Job Carpenter, who offers guidance and assistance as they move into this harsh environment. Their first evening in the woods is marked by the warmth and camaraderie shared with Job, who takes them in and helps them settle into their new life. However, ominous hints of the challenges that lie ahead emerge as settlers face both the dangers of the wilderness and the encroachment of rival claimants, setting the stage for conflict and adventure in their pursuit of a better life.
