Does anyone know of any good and available books on Benedict Arnolds life?

Have a look on amazon.co.uk and search under Benedict Arnold. There are quite a few listed with prices and there is the one on the Life and Treason of Benedict Arnold which you can view extracts of. I hope this is helpful.

Didn't even think about that, thanks!

Willard Randall's "Patriot and Traitor" is very good; Clare Brandt's "Man in the Mirror" is interesting, but a little too "psychoanalytical" (IMO).

Personally, I'm not that impressed by Arnold's strategy/tactics at Valcour, but he was never less than brave in action, whatever his other faults.
