Trouble erupts in the New Hampshire Grants when settlers are forced from their homes (1770-1775). Ethan Allen and Benedict Arnold reluctantly join forces to capture Fort Ticonderoga in New York -- thereby expanding the war beyond New England (5/10/75). James heads to the Grants to cover the story of the settlers’ struggle; Sarah goes hoping to find a place in the Green Mountains for her family to settle; Henri goes hoping to find maple syrup. Sarah and James witness the capture of the fort and Sarah befriends Benedict Arnold.
