Peggy Shippen Arnold A Glamorous Revolutionary Era Figure
An examination of Peggy Shippen Arnold's role in Benedict Arnold's treason across arguments by Haines and Sellers. It weighs whether she was innocent victim or arch-conspirator, citing letters, Clinton papers, Andre correspondence, and biographical views. Peggy's life spans Philadelphia society, West Point plots, exile in England, and a British pension followed by a faded later life.
