Benedict Arnold
Author: Brian Richard Boylan
Publisher: W. W. Norton
ISBN: 9780393331622
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Benedict Arnold was the most respected and feared officer in the American revolutionary army. Resourceful and utterly unafraid, he seemed to thrive on impossible challenges. In the dead of winter he marched through the wilds of Maine to attack Quebec; he built a fleet on Lake Champlain in four months and stymied the British drive south; he was largely responsible for the American victory at Saratoga and for Burgoyne's surrender. Several times he narrowly escaped death in hand-to-hand engagements. Although Arnold was a hero to his troops, official recognition was denied him. Congress first refused to reimburse his expenses, then ignored his seniority and promoted lesser officers over his head. The impatient Arnold became disgusted with political intrigues and within months of his triumph at Saratoga his allegiance to the American cause began to waver. John André, adjutant general of the British army, was a different sort of man. He was polished, coldly political, and a shrewd judge of character. Realizing Arnold's importance to the rebels, André enlisted the help of the beautiful Mrs. Arnold, a staunch Tory, in playing on the general's disaffection. This book traces the strange sequence of events leading Arnold to defect to the British. The story combines the adventure of a novel with the drama of an important historical incident; for had West Point fallen to the British as planned, the war might have ended shortly. Author Brian Boylan, carefully avoiding the usual prejudices against "Arnold the Traitor," sets him before us as a fascinating, flawed man. --page 4 of cover.

E. Pluribus Unum
Author: Marvin V. Blake
Publisher: Page Publishing Inc
ISBN: 1644623943
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 554
Book Description
E Pluribus Unum: (From Many, One) is an epic story (1861–1876) chronicling the lives of two individuals. One a black man, Jason Ruth, born into a life of perpetual slavery; the other was a white woman, Rebecca Billings, the daughter of Henry Billings, master of the Rosewood Plantation, born into a pampered life of privilege as a member of the Southern aristocracy. Two people – one black, the other white – whose preordained statuses in life were at diametrically opposite ends of the South's Antebellum society. Two people with absolutely nothing in common yet two people whose lives were inexorably linked due to the lust of Rebecca's father, Henry Billings, for his black slave, Ruth, Jason's mother. Henry Billings's coupling (white master with his black female slave), a common and socially accepted practice in the slave–holding South, resulted in the birth of Mandy (Jason and Rebecca's sister). While Jason and Rebecca are not related by blood, Jason (who had been born before his mother, Ruth, caught the eye of the "massa") and Rebecca each shared a deep and enduring love for his and her only surviving sibling, their common link, their sister, Mandy. The novel tells of Rebecca's life while raising a child of mixed blood in the South during the Civil War and during Reconstruction. It tells of Jason's life as a member of the Massachusetts 54th Infantry Division and his service as a member of the United States Army's 10th Cavalry (Buffalo Soldiers). The novel examines three coexisting nineteenth–century American cultures: the recently defeated South's response to the post–Civil War's era of Reconstruction, the former black slaves who are attempting to adjust to life as freedmen, and the noble nomadic hunter–gatherer society of the Plains Indians fighting to defend and to maintain their way of life.
