During the American Revolutionary War, several skirmishes took place at Ticonderoga, a fort located in upstate New York at the southern end of Lake Champlain. In May of 1775, American troops captured the fort from its British occupiers after a brief battle. Two years later, in July of 1777, the fort was retaken by the British without any siege or major battle being required. The fort's strategic importance did lead, however, to various significant battles being fought in its general vicinity.
Tadeusz Kosciuszko was a Polish patriot and military leader, now regarded as a hero in Poland, Belarus, Lithuania and the US. He arrived in North America during the War of Independence, and set about assisting with the fortification of key cities.Kosciuszko first built Fort Billingsport on the Delaware River in Paulsboro, New Jersey. A year later, he was directing the building of more forts along the Canadian border. He was also posted to try and rebuild Fort Ticonderoga near the southern end of Lake Champlain in the state of New York. Unfortunately, his recommendations for a battery above the fort, on Sugar Loaf Mountain, were ignored, and the fort was lost when the british moved in to attack from the mountain.
Haitian Revolutionary leader, Toussaint L'Ouverture wrote a letter to the French Directory advising them against any efforts to re-institute slavery in Haiti. Three years later, Napoleon sought to reestablish slavery, and L'Ouverture headed the resistance. He was captured, taken to France and died in custody three years later. Napoleon was unable to subjugate Haiti.
