Find out how this one-time American hero became the country's most
notorious traitor. As a young child, Benedict Arnold never shied
away from a fight. So when the French and Indian War began in 1754,
Benedict was eager to join the militia and fight for the British
colonies in America. And when he was eighteen years old, he got his
chance. Arnold had no idea that less than twenty years later, he
would be fighting against the British in the Revolutionary War. Now
the captain of his own militia, Benedict won the admiration of his
troops and George Washington when he captured a major British fort.
He continued fighting for the colonies and was even considered a
patriotic war hero after being wounded in battle. But in 1780,
Benedict made a decision that no one could anticipate. He betrayed
his fellow Americans and joined the British army. Author James
Buckley Jr. takes us through Benedict's life and explains the
events that led him to switch sides and become the most famous
turncoat in American history.
