George Washington's Secret Six: The Spy Ring That Saved The American Revolution


George Washington's Secret Six:: The Spy Ring That Saved The American Revolution
By: Brian Kilmeade and Don Yaeger

George Washington knew he could not win the Revolutionary war without some strategical intelligence about the events occurring in the city of New York, a city that was under the rule of the British Military. This is a fascinating look at our history and about six men, known as the Culper Spy Ring, who were instrumental in the success of the Americans in their war against Britain. Secrecy was of the highest priority in order for these men to be successful and survive, they managed to be so secretive that it has taken hundreds of years to uncover their identity. One identity, thought to be a women, has yet to be discovered and we may never know who she was.

The authors did a great job in bringing a little piece of history alive.
