About this audiobook

Benedict Arnold, a complex figure in American history, is remembered both as a brilliant military officer and as a traitor during the Revolutionary War. Born in 1741 in Connecticut, Arnold’s early victories, including the capture of Fort Ticonderoga, showcased his strategic brilliance. However, feeling underappreciated and overlooked, he defected to the British Army in 1780. This biography examines Arnold’s motivations, his pivotal role in American and British military campaigns, and his lasting reputation as a symbol of betrayal. Despite his controversial legacy, Arnold’s story reveals the human complexities of loyalty, ambition, and honor during one of history’s defining conflicts.
