Not originally. Benedict Arnold was an an American hero and one of America's best generals. After the capture of Fort Ticonderoga he came within a hair of capturing Canada. At the Battle of Saratoga his horse was shot from under him and he was wounded in the leg by a British musket ball. After he was discredited (an event which remains controversial to this day), Arnold had little choice but to ally himself with the British, as a hangman's rope awaited him if he returned to the American side. The British made him a general in their army, but other British generals did not like him or trust him, as they regarded him a traitor to the American side.
Colonel Benedict Arnold and General Richard Montgomery.
The Continental Congress dispatched General Richard Montgomery and Benedict Arnold to fight the British in Canada in 1775. Montgomery was successful in taking Montreal, but was stopped in Quebec City. It was there that he was killed in battle. Benedict Arnold was praised for conducting an orderly retreat of the American forces.
The American major generals were George Washington, Nathaniel Greene, Daniel Morgan, Marquis de Lafayette(French) and Horatio Gates. The major British Generals were Lord Charles Cornwallis, William Howe, and Johnny Burgoyne. Also, Benedict Arnold who fought on the American side for a while, but then betrayed America, fleeing to fight for the British side.
The bold American military strategy that narrowly failed in December 1775 was the invasion of Quebec during the American Revolutionary War. Under the leadership of General Richard Montgomery, American forces attempted to take control of the city of Quebec and bring Canada into the rebellion against British rule. However, the invasion was hindered by harsh winter conditions, a lack of supplies, and fierce resistance from British and Canadian forces, ultimately resulting in the defeat of the American troops.
