One of the trips we could take was camping over night on Valcour Island. It was a wonderful and beautify place out in the middle of the lake. But I don't think we ever learned about a battle with Benedict Arnold as hero for the colonies. Well, it was the late 50s and early 60s so maybe it was too off key to talk about Arnold as a hero.
