The Robin Hood Of Vermont is the title
aptly given to Ethan Allen by the Yer
mont historian, the late Henry Hall,
whose lie of Ethan Allen is to be pub
lishcd Immediately by D. Appleton & Co.
For many years Mr.. Hall was engaged
in search for material regarding the
life of his subject, one of the boldest, BRAY
est, and most picturesque figures i'll Amer
lean History. The author has found that
the character of Ethan Allen has been oft
en- mis,onstrucd and misrcprcscnted and
in this book he has cndeavored to de
scribe the man as he really was. The re-
suit is volume which reads like ro-
nance, presenting as it does vivid pie
lures of the Green Mountain Boys, the
dramatic capture of TicOndcroga, the at
tack on Montreal lite in British prisons,
and the curious negotiations regarding
the independence of Vermont. The aim
of the author has been, however, to de-
pict Aliens personality, and to throw
some new light upon the character OF one
who has been often violently assaicd,
Aliens own letters have been freely drawn
upon. The mass of material which has
been examined has included matter not
utilized before, and the result is anlmpar-
tial and careful picture of Aliens assocla-
tions, and habits of thought and action,
which, it is believed, cannot he neglected
