Three weeks later, near the Canadian border, one of his favorite generals, Benedict Arnold, miraculously succeeds in postponing the British naval advance down Lake Champlain that might have ended the war. Four years later, as the book ends, Washington has vanquished his demons and Arnold has fled to the enemy after a foiled attempt to surrender the American fortress at West Point to the British. After four years of war, America is forced to realize that the real threat to its liberties might not come from without but from within. 541 $d 20160511. 600 17 $a Washington, George $d 1732-1799. 600 10 $a Arnold, Benedict $d 1741-1801. 651 0 $a United States $x History $y Revolution, 1775-1783. 651 0 $a United States $x History, Military. 655 7 $a Audiobooks. 655 7 $a Military history. 655 7 $a Audiobooks. 700 $a Brick, Scott. 941 $a 20 945 $a cda 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409024215.0 952 $l KAPF566 $d 20230331012956.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20220804022700.0 952 $l BJPD251 $d 20211215015048.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20210908010035.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722053255.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20190814044009.0 952 $l RZPE145 $d 20190328011814.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006094852.0 952 $l MMPE553 $d 20180719043041.0 952 $l GUPF501 $d 20170304020731.0 952 $l WSPF215 $d 20170128011207.0 952 $l WHPE115 $d 20161213011224.0 952 $l D8PD522 $d 20161105011427.0 952 $l VKPE334 $d 20161004011817.0 952 $l SXPC124 $d 20160929010654.0 952 $l KWPE446 $d 20160903011043.0 952 $l HPPD845 $d 20160901010529.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20160617010400.0 952 $l KOPC446 $d 20160520014552.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7E7745DC1E5011E6B2133BA4DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
