This photo is of Arnold and his men escaping Carleton's fleet and forcing them to retreat. He is shown working alongside his men, which shows how he's different from other American and British Generals. He knew his life was worth just as much as theirs', not more or less. This made him truly special.

The foreshadowing of Arnold's betrayal is extremely light and mostly just brushed aside by the other people he effects. Washington being the most affected. Sheinkin illustrates to the reader Arnold's inevitable betrayal as it develops while showing us how not a single other person every actually figures it out until it's too late. He doesn't show up to places where he needs to be on time or at all, he argues against his superiors, and he even goes against direct orders.

Sheinkin foreshadowed Arnold's betrayal is evident in small parts throughout the book, but mainly during the last few month before he truly switched sides and began helping the British from General Washington's reactions to his strange behaviors to Arnold's own actions.

I found this quote at the end of the book, and rightfully so. It fully encapsulates the entire storyline. Arnold had helped in many different areas of the war, including the march and battle for Quebec and the Battle of Saratoga. He also managed to hold of Governor Carleton's fleet in Canada. This would have easily won him a respectful spot in our country's history. But by betraying his country and aiding the British, he was one of the most hated men in the country at the time.

"If Arnold had died from his wounds at the Battle of Saratoga, we would think of him today as one of the all time greatest American heroes." (Sheinkin 306)

This is a picture of Arnold during the battle of Quebec. He is shown here commanding a large group of men who have gone through the worst possible conditions imaginable, including storms, freezing rivers, loss of food and water, and freezing cold with very little and tattered clothing. At this fight they are down multiple men and are outnumbered by the british 12 to 1, yet the Americans fought to the bitter end for Arnold.

I would agree with this review, as it fully captures the soul purpose of the book. Sheinkin's way of capturing the reader and making them feel like they're there with Arnold as he braves each and every battle along with his life outside of the war is extraordinary. How he makes the Revolutionary War and the horrible conditions of it seem like an action movie is beyond me, and every chapter drew me in more and more. The story of Arnold before he betrayed the U.S. is astonishing, and Sheinkin captured it perfectly.

(NoveList) School Library Journal: /* Starred Review */ Gr 7 Up — American history is brought to life in this engaging story of revolution and treason. Most people know very little about Benedict Arnold—only that he was a traitor during the  American War of Independence. Sheinkin recounts the  tale of a larger-than-life persona, from his uncertain boyhood to his immense popularity as an unpredictable, yet brilliant, commander in the  American army, and finally, to his end days, living in London, despised and disgraced. The  story of Arnold's bravery and his rise in the  esteem of the  colonists is played out against the  political squabbling and fears the  Continental Congress had about military figures becoming too powerful and upsetting the  delicate democracy they were busy creating. Through letters, journals, historic accounts, and other resources, Sheinkin keeps readers wanting to know what will happen next. Short, episodic chapters titled with relevant dates are an effective way  to pace various battles—on the  field and off—and understand their place in the  larger picture of the  war. Other key figures are well developed in the  narrative. Seeing a glimpse of these personalities makes their subsequent actions believable and meaningful. The Notorious  Benedict Arnold is likely to make readers want to learn more about the  American Revolution and its players, great and small. Source notes at the  end of the  book allow them to do just that.—Karen Elliott, Grafton High School, WI --Karen Elliott (Reviewed November 1 , 2010) (School Library Journal, vol 56, issue 11, p142)
