Burn the town and sack the banks!
In a little over two weeks, I will be travelling to St. Albans, Vermont. This town was made famous by being the object of the furthermost northern raid of Confederate forces during the Civil War. I will have more to tell after I get there.
The raid is the subject of a book by Carolyn J. Prince entitled: Burn the town and sack the banks.
Also on this trip - if I can get to see him - I plan on meeting with the leader of Vermont's secession movement - Thomas H. Naylor, the leader of the 2nd Vermont Republic.
The Second Vermont Republic has been picking up steam for the past few years with over 13% of Vermont's population wishing to secede from the union.
There is something going on in Vermont and I intend to find out what it is.
To purchase book: Burn the town and sack the banks!
