Om Benedict Arnold & Me
Are you Arnold curious? Knowing that he was a traitor, but wondering exactly what he did? And why? I can relate. I first asked these questions over 45 years ago. Since then, I've read dozens of books, seen a score of documentaries & presentations, and visited sites in Canada, England, and the US. My history hobby has led me to enthusiastically writing my own rendition of the Arnold story. I'm not an accredited historian, so a scholarly biography was out of the question. But I see this not as a limitation, but instead a freedom. Writing with the reader in mind, I believe this book is concise, comprehensive, easy-to-read, entertaining, sometimes humorous, and less biased in its presentation. And most importantly, my approach allows for an interpretation of his many alleged motives, plus consideration of many what-if scenarios. If you're looking for a single book to help you become Arnold-savvy, this is it. And if you're an Arnold junky, I trust it will inspire new perspectives.
