DARE CALL IT TREASON

 

The definition of treason varies with one's political point of view. George Washington would have been labelled a traitor to the British Crown forever had the American Revolution failed. The legal and popular cultural portrayal of treason can be an extremely interesting research topic for those interested in the interaction between law and politics.

Some individuals, now labelled traitors, whose stories have not been over-researched and/or written include:
