review 1: I honestly forgot I was reading a non-fiction book. I love the way Steve Sheinkin use historical fact to weave a fascinating tail. I learned so much from this book. I had no idea what a hero Benedict Arnold was before he chose to betray his country. This book skillfully points out the reasons why Arnold felt he was justified in doing what he did. The events leading up to the treachery are plainly laid out. As with all of Sheinkin's books I could not put it down!
review 2: Sheinkin presents another side to early America's most famous traitor, Benedict Arnold: a daring soldier itching to lead. Except for one mistake, Arnold might have made the list of our greatest heroes. In forty-five short chapters, the author tells Arnold's exciting life story dotted with susp... moreense and details of the Revolutionary War. Maps and Quotation Notes provide more information in addition to introducing his Source Note sections with an explanatory paragraph. No wonder this book earned a YALSA for excellence in young adult nonfiction! less
