Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intriguing life of Benedict Arnold, a figure often remembered for his infamous betrayal during the American Revolution. However, the author takes a much broader view, exploring Arnold's early life as a prominent figure in the Rhode Island Colony. The book exa…mines his rise to power as a merchant, land speculator, and ultimately, governor of the colony. Through meticulous historical research, the author unveils the political landscape of the early colonies, highlighting the struggles for land, power, and religious freedom that defined the era. The book explores the complex web of relationships that Arnold navigated, including his contentious encounters with Samuel Gorton, a religious leader who challenged the established order. It also sheds light on the intricate political maneuvering surrounding the founding of Rhode Island, the role of the colony within the broader context of the New England colonies, and Arnold's complex relationships with various Native American tribes. In its comprehensive exploration of Arnold's life before his infamous turn, this book offers a nuanced understanding of a pivotal figure in colonial America, challenging traditional narratives and providing insights into the dynamic forces that shaped the early history of the nation.
