Praise for Henry Knox’s Noble Train:

“The author of Wright Brothers, Wrong Story (2018) does an impressive job of sifting through frequently contradictory primary and secondary sources to piece together an engaging account of Henry Knox's "noble train"--an astonishing assembly of people and animals that brought the artillery to Boston just in time to avert the possible derailment of the American Revolution. It was an arduous and danger-fraught expedition, and Hazelgrove makes readers feel as though they were a part of it. This is a fine example of dramatic, immersive history.”

“A retelling of an iconic episode in the American Revolution. Early in the revolution, still-good-guy Benedict Arnold teamed up with Ethan Allen to take the remote British fort at Ticonderoga, where hundreds of cannons were among the booty. Not many were serviceable, and then there was the matter of getting them to George Washington's forces outside Boston. Enter Henry Knox (1750-1806), a young bookseller who, writes popular historian Hazelgrove, ‘simply could not read enough about what men constructed during times of war.’ Knox was gifted at logistics and was an early convert to the cause of independence, and he managed to pull together a "noble train" of oxen, horses, and sledges to haul the useable cannons over ice-covered rivers, mountain ranges, and what the author calls ‘unchartered wilderness.’ It was a formidable undertaking, full of peril, as Hazelgrove repeats in various formulations--e.g., ‘hours of painstaking effort in freezing water, ice, and snow’; ‘so they trudged on, men fighting the cold and the terrain as they bedded down at night with tents and warmed themselves by fires, drinking whiskey and smoking pipes....’”

Praise for One Hundred and Sixty Minutes:

“One might think that we know all there is to know about that April 14, 1912 story, but Hazelgrove, an energetically curious man, has unearthed a compelling and exciting story and effectively pokes holes in some of the persistent myths surrounding the tragedy.”

– Chicago Tribune

“A legion of books and films has honed the mythology of the indomitable British stiff upper lip maintained by doomed passengers and crew aboard the gargantuan vessel lost without hope or salvation in a vast ocean as the orchestra played on. But a new book explodes that fantasy...every soul on the Titanic could have been saved"
