I've been to Ft. Ticonderoga twice.  A very cool place.  After reading
"Rabble at Arms" I have to go back.  I'll have a different perspective on
it now.  Crown Point is worth a visit too.  The forts (there were two
different ones there at different times) are not reconstructed but the
ruins are interesting and there is a small museum/visitor center.
