Tyler Alexander

Tyler Alexander is a proud eighth generation Vermonter whose ancestors settled in Glover, VT during Thomas Jefferson’s presidency in 1804 and continued to live and farm there for two centuries.

He loves all that the outdoors in Vermont has to offer across all four seasons: gardening, hiking, maple sugaring, hunting, fishing, cutting firewood, skiing, canoeing, running, biking, and cider pressing.

Tyler taught at North Country Union High School in Newport, VT for 17 years and is currently teaching at Champlain Valley Union High School.

He has visited several of the places—often with his students—that are described in his book: Antietam, Gettysburg, Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, the Wilderness, Spotsylvania, Washington, DC, and Richmond, VA.

He lives with his wife Aimee, and two children.
