It was said about Benedict Arnold that he never did anything by halves. Was he a traitor? Yes. But not just any traitor. He was the renegade of all renegades, the man whose name became a synonym for treason, the Judas Iscariot of American history. A closer look reveals a complex character beyond the treason. Arnold was one of the most important and effective officers to lead patriot troops in the Revolutionary War. He secured the Americans’ defenses in the north in 1775, fought off a British invasion in 1776, and led the fight at the turning-point Battle of Saratoga in 1777. His lower leg was shattered by an enemy bullet in that chaotic brawl.
Another wonderful story about our history Jack and how we still struggle with trust in this world today. For me, I honestly only trust my God, Jehovah.
Fascinating. Looking forward to the book!
