| Notes: | Arnold nearly succeeded in conquering Canada for the Americans, built the first American fleet, and repeatedly battled the British to a standstill. Despite great military success, Arnold was never paid for his victories. When British spymaster Major John Andre approached the disenchanted general, Arnold was ready to change sides. Randall unravels the web of personal drama and political intrigue that led to the most famous betrayal in American history. |
