Benedict Arnold's name is etched into the annals of rebellion and betrayal during the Revolutionary War. This woodcut handbill serves as a visual reminder of his controversial actions that forever altered his legacy. As we gaze upon this piece, we are transported back to a time when America fought for its independence against British rule.
