Following Benedict Arnold: The 1775 Invasion of Quebec

It's one thing to sit in your favorite armchair and read about how Colonel Benedict Arnold's grueling march across the wilds of Maine to seize the fortress of Quebec City from the British – it's another to strap your hiking boots on, hop in a boat, and try to do it yourself. Join me and Benton Guinness as we trace Arnold's route over lakes, mountains, and portages through one of the last great wildernesses of America's East Coast.
