On this day 250 years ago, the British were succumbing to George Washington's army and would soon flee Boston. Special thanks to Henry Knox, a bookseller, who traveled hundreds of miles to Fort Ticonderoga to fetch dozens of cannons for Washington's troops in the middle of winter that were instrumental in pushing out the British.

Happy Birthday, George Washington!

The article is about George Washington.
