The Taking of Vincennes

Presented by Ranger Jason M. Collins.  The George Rogers Clark story often touted as one of the outstanding accomplishments of the American Revolution often is lost in accounts of American History.  Ranger Collins will explain the difficulties of Clark’s rather unconventional campaign and why this story is important to the history of the American Revolution and to America.  Park Ranger Collins has been in the National Park Service for eight years serving at Valley Forge National Historical Park and Lincoln Home National Historic Site prior to coming to George Rogers Clark National Park.
