About this episode
'Canada ought to be the 14th colony' was a view held by many American revolutionaries. In the winter of 1775, Benedict Arnold led an incredible (if doomed) mission to make it happen.
We're delighted to be joined again by Maj. Jonathan D. Bratten, historian for the Maine National Guard.
Edited by Tim Arstall. Produced by Freddy Chick. Senior Producer was Charlotte Long.
