The True Exploits of Ben Arnold
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.

The Late Years of Benedict Arnold
The life of Benedict Arnold, the American Revolutionary War general who attempted to surrender West Point to the British in 1780, didn't end after he betrayed his American compatriots. In the newly formed United States, he was condemned as a conspirator and in Britain, he was suspected of the same. He quickly left America, spent a short time in London, and largely operated in Canada and the Caribbean as a smuggler, a mercenary and a pariah. Although much has been written about Arnold's famous fall from grace, this book is the story of a charismatic man of vaulting ambition. With new research and photographs, it delves into his last twenty years. Arnold remains fascinating as a toppled hero and a flagrant traitor. Another American general wrote in the 1780s that Arnold "never does anything by halves"; indeed, he lived on a big scale. This study documents each of the various points of the globe where the restless Arnold operated and lived, pursuing wealth, status, and redemption.
