Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ben Arnold was the contemporary of Wild Bill, Crazy Horse, Sitting Bull, Buffalo Bill, George Armstrong Custer, Frank Grouard, and many other notables of the old west. He knew most of them and he was well-known in the territories of Montana, Wyoming, and the Dakotas. After serving in the American Civil War, Arnold went west and worked through the end of the century as a gold miner, cowboy, lawman, and army scout. He was with General George Crook during the 1876 Big Horn and Yellowstone Expedition, when Custer lost his life and Crook fought Crazy Horse at the Rosebud. In this thrilling account of his life, Arnold provides a look into a world that is long gone and fascinating to anyone interested in the wild west of the 19th century. As a man who lived among and had family among the Indians, this is a clear-eyed and sympathetic view a way of life he saw vanishing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Real Benedict Arnold "I would give a great deal for a true, unbiased, concise biography of Benedict Arnold," said a bright young clergyman to the writer, "one that would reveal the hidden springs of his action in betraying his country. Do you know, the reasons given in the histories never seemed to me sufficient; and on the principle of giving the devil his due I have an unpleasant impression that he has not been fairly treated." To fill the want mentioned by the clergyman this book has been written. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis The Exploits of Ben Arnold by : Lewis F. Crawford
Download or read book The Exploits of Ben Arnold written by Lewis F. Crawford and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2000-02-01 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ben Arnold (Connor), soldier, gold-seeker, bullwhacker, scout, hunter, cowboy, trader, miner, interpreter, and homesteader, epitomized the restless frontiersman. Through Arnold's recollections, the reader can experience life in the post-Civil War West. "The young Indians did not want to part with the Black Hills at any price, and not until the latter part of September did the treaty finally get under way. The treaty was attended by many renowned chiefs and their prominent followers. They were suspicious of the whites and it seemed evident from the first that the conference would not be able to accomplish its purpose-the bloodless acquisition of the Black Hills. Fortunately for me I had brought over the mail from Running Water and had the opportunity of hearing the treaty. I had given out beef issues to every agency represented and interested in the Black Hills. I knew the chiefs and leading men in every Sioux tribe and was able to converse with them without the necessity of an interpreter.... The situation was so tense that soldiers were sent over from Fort Robinson. Bloodshed seemed eminent. Had a gun been accidentally discharged, the life of every white man present would have been snuffed out instantly." "Arnold was a soldier in the Civil War, deserted on his second enlistment, and re-enlisted under an assumed name for service on the western Indian Frontier. On his way west, he helped to chase the guerrilla Quantrill, saw the smoke of burning Lawrence, traversed the Oregon Trail, and tarried by the way at Fort Kearney, Doby Town, Julesburg, and Fort Laramie. Stationed as a military guard on the telegraph line west of Laramie, Arnold herded horses, hunted bear, became acquainted with Joe Slade and other notorious plainsmen, and saw something of Brigham Young's Destroying Angels. Deserting again, Arnold went to the Snake River, across which he helped to ferry the ceaseless western-bound horde. Stampeding to Virginia City, he described the great Montana gold rush. He visited every trading post along the Missouri and became acquainted with all the characters of note, both white and Indian. Married to an Indian woman, he became skilled in Indian language and customs, took part as interpreter in the making of several treaties, and served as dispatch bearer in the Crook campaign." —Horace Bagley, North Dakota Historical Quarterly
Book Synopsis Ben's Tale by : Arnold Patrick Parker
Download or read book Ben's Tale written by Arnold Patrick Parker and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2008-08-14 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Benedict Arnold: A Biography A traitor is despised of all the world. I have stated in my preface, that is is the design of the Biographical Series of which this volume is a part, to "furnish from the pages of the world's history a few examples of true manhood, lofty purpose, and persevering effort, such as may be safely held up either for the admiration or emulation of the youth of the present day;" and I am sure it is needless to add that the life of Benedict Arnold offers no such example. On the contrary, his memory will be detested as long as time shall help to keep it alive. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis Benedict Arnold by : Brian Richard Boylan
Download or read book Benedict Arnold written by Brian Richard Boylan and published by W. W. Norton. This book was released on 1973-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Benedict Arnold was the most respected and feared officer in the American revolutionary army. Resourceful and utterly unafraid, he seemed to thrive on impossible challenges. In the dead of winter he marched through the wilds of Maine to attack Quebec; he built a fleet on Lake Champlain in four months and stymied the British drive south; he was largely responsible for the American victory at Saratoga and for Burgoyne's surrender. Several times he narrowly escaped death in hand-to-hand engagements. Although Arnold was a hero to his troops, official recognition was denied him. Congress first refused to reimburse his expenses, then ignored his seniority and promoted lesser officers over his head. The impatient Arnold became disgusted with political intrigues and within months of his triumph at Saratoga his allegiance to the American cause began to waver. John André, adjutant general of the British army, was a different sort of man. He was polished, coldly political, and a shrewd judge of character. Realizing Arnold's importance to the rebels, André enlisted the help of the beautiful Mrs. Arnold, a staunch Tory, in playing on the general's disaffection. This book traces the strange sequence of events leading Arnold to defect to the British. The story combines the adventure of a novel with the drama of an important historical incident; for had West Point fallen to the British as planned, the war might have ended shortly. Author Brian Boylan, carefully avoiding the usual prejudices against "Arnold the Traitor," sets him before us as a fascinating, flawed man. --page 4 of cover.
