	From Revolution to Reconstruction: Biographies: Ethan Allen-epilog
		Without a car, the inconvenience and amount of time necessary to read all of John Pell's biography on Ethan Allen, or all of the History of Vermont, both located at the historical society, outweighed the benefits of using them when I had Michael Bellesile's book on interlibrary loan.
		I suppose that my thesis, "How Ethan Allen contributed to the formation of the independent state of Vermont using republican ideology", created a paper specifically addressing that subject, is original because it has not been done before.
		For anyone doing research on Ethan Allen, the few books I can recommend are Michael Bellesile's Revolutionar Outlaws: Ethan Allen and the Struggle for Independence on the Early American Frontier, John Pell's biography on Ethan, and The History of Vermont (these last two books are available at the CT historical society).
