Arundel is a moving tale of Steven Nason and his quest to find and reclaim his childhood friend Mary Mallinson who was captured and taken to Quebec by Henri Guerlac de Sabrevois. The story is a window into the lives of everyday Americans in the early revolutionary period and their relationship with the Abenaki Indians. The portrait of the Sons of Liberty and their standing in the community, the local prejudices that divided the colonists and their efforts to meld together behind the cause of liberty and the charismatic leadership of Benedict Arnold and his ability to inspire under the most distressing of circumstances bring all of these characters' paths together in turbulent, deceitful and tragic manners. For those who love liberty the portrayal of the moment can be raw, but it's a colorful account of the ill fated expedition of the colonial army to take Quebec.
