Andre: A Tragedy In Five Acts is a play written by William Wilberforce Lord and first published in 1856. The play is based on the true story of Major John Andre, a British officer who was executed during the American Revolutionary War for his role in Benedict Arnold's plot to surrender West Point to the British. The play takes place during the final days of the war and explores the themes of loyalty, betrayal, and sacrifice. The main character, Andre, is portrayed as a sympathetic figure who is torn between his duty to his country and his love for Peggy Shippen, the wife of Benedict Arnold. The play also features other historical figures such as George Washington, Benedict Arnold, and Alexander Hamilton. Lord's writing style is reminiscent of Shakespearean tragedies, with poetic language and dramatic dialogue. Overall, Andre: A Tragedy In Five Acts is a compelling and emotional play that explores the complexities of war and the human condition.This Book Is In English.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
