Most people know that Benedict Arnold was America’s first, most notorious traitor. Few know that he was also one of its greatest Revolutionary War heroes.<\/p>\n

Steve Sheinkin’s accessible biography, The Notorious Benedict Arnold, introduces young readers to the real Arnold: reckless, heroic, and driven. Packed with first-person accounts, astonishing American Revolution battle scenes, and surprising twists, this is a gripping and true adventure tale from history.<\/p>\n

\u201cSheinkin sees Arnold as America’s \u2018original action hero’ and succeeds in writing a brilliant, fast-paced biography that reads like an adventure novel…The author’s obvious mastery of his material, lively prose and abundant use of eyewitness accounts make this one of the most exciting biographies young readers will find.\u201d \u2015Kirkus Reviews (starred review)<\/p>\n

\u201cSeveral complex political, social, and military themes emerge, one of the most prominent being that within the Continental army, often simplistically depicted as single-minded patriots, beat hearts scheming with political machinations that are completely familiar today…Arnold’s inexorable clash with Gates and his decision to turn traitor both chill and compel.\u201d \u2015Horn Book Magazine (starred review)<\/p>\n
