In my soul, we fight for principles.

With the newborn United States of America engaged in a fight for its life, the Hudson Valley is the center of the action. As whispers of treason creep through the colonies, history’s quintessential malefactor plots his defection and flight from this fledgling nation.

Featuring the year’s hottest founding father, Alexander Hamilton, as well as President George Washington, this riveting retelling of Benedict Arnold’s treasonous plot will be well-served on the banks of the Hudson, overlooking West Point - Arnold’s own command.
