Gone Over

Gone Over is the story of the American Revolution seen through the reverse lens of British Intelligence—a view never quite seen before. Israel Potter is the best known private soldier of the Revolution, and his story takes the reader through the maelstrom of the war. From a beginning in captivity, Potter’s life touches every major figure of this secret war, starting with the underground Friends of America in England and continuing through Benjamin Franklin’s mission in Paris until it finally returns to the home front and the defection of Benedict Arnold.
