The wisdom and punditry of Mark A. York: Fishery biologist, journalist, Historian, Eagle Scout, and novelist. I was a staff writer for The Livingston Enterprise in Livingston, Montana. I wrote special projects for the Idaho Mountain Express in 2011. I'm the author of Patriot on the Kennebec and the global warming eco-thrillers, Warm Front and Heat Wave.

Thank you to Mark A. York, a descendant of Reuben Colburn, for information about the crucial role his ancestor played in Arnold's march to Quebec. The Colburn House in Pittston, Maine is on the National Register thanks to his efforts and is open to the public.
