Wolfeboro Public Library 259 South Main Street

The public is invited to the program “Benedict Arnold, Patriot and Traitor,” presented by George Morrison at the Wolfeboro Public Library on Wednesday evening, October 21 at 6pm. Most Americans think they know the story of Benedict Arnold, the American Revolutionary War general who fought for the Continental Army but then defected to the British. Recalled mainly as a traitor for his 1780 defection, Arnold had risked his life and fortune for American freedom in courageous exploits between 1775 and 1778, when the dream of independence was at its most fragile. As an officer in the Continental Army, Arnold ably led American forces in desperate circumstances against impossible odds, in a blinding snowstorm, through a howling wilderness, and against the extraordinary might of the Royal Navy. George Morrison will take you on a journey through New England, Canada, and New York tracing the complex story of this infamous American icon.
This program is made possible by a grant from New Hampshire Humanities. It is free and open to all. For more information on this and other Library programs, please visit <a href="https://www.wolfeborolibrary.org" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">www.wolfeborolibrary.org</a>
