The Black Watch at Ticonderoga and Major Duncan Campbell of Inverawe by Richards
"The Black Watch at Ticonderoga and Major Duncan Campbell of Inverawe" by Frederick B. Richards is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work focuses on the Black Watch, a famous Highland regiment, detailing its involvement in the Ticonderoga campaign during the French and Indian War. The narrative highlights the life and experiences of Major Duncan Campbell of Inverawe, who played a significant role in this chapter of military
history. The beginning of this account introduces the author’s deep appreciation for Ticonderoga's history, fueled by his extensive residence in the area. It outlines the challenges of documenting the Black Watch's records due to historical losses and emphasizes the author's ambition to compile a comprehensive account of the regiment's activities from its departure in 1756 to the aftermath of the 1758 battle. The opening also hints at the personal journey of Major Campbell and foreshadows themes of courage and legacy amidst the backdrop of a tumultuous military campaign.
