Ben's Tale Arnold Patrick Parker

With a different take on the life of Benedict Arnold, Ben's Tale reveals an epic story of greed and glory, family and friendship, treason and truthfulness. Told by a history buff who is also a London physician, the drama unfolds as the doctor gets an opportunity to treat-and befriend-the infamous general, and find out for himself whether Arnold's story is one of slanderous legend or an extraordinary man wrongly accused. The so-called traitor unmasks his tale of woe-of jealous, ambitious founding fathers, doubts about the viability of the new nation and of his relationship with his beautiful wife, Peggy, and her role in facilitating his change of coat.
