Good book on Robert Cobb Kennedy, who escaped I believe from a northern prison into Canada and made it to Montreal where he hooked up with other rebels well known to be there and got involved in a plot to burn NYC hotels during the election of 1864: "The Man Who Tried To Burn New York" (1990), by Nat Brandt (https://www.amazon.com/Man-Who-Tried-Burn-York/dp/0425119181/ref=sr_1_7?keywords=Robert+Cobb+Kennedy&qid=1564432019&s=gateway&sr=8-7).
