"Compelling."--"Publishers Weekly "After five years working on Washington, I knew there was a story to tell about his reliance on spies during the revolutionary war. But I believed the story could never be told because the evidence did not exist. Well, I was wrong, and Alexander Rose tells this important story with style and wit."-- Joseph J. Ellis, "Author of His Excellency: George Washington "Think of Alan Furst with muskets. ... Making brilliant use of documentary sources, Rose gives us intrigue, crossed signals, derring-do, and a priceless slice of 18th-century life."--Richard Brookhiser, author of "Founding Father: Rediscovering George Washington, "Compelling."--"Publishers Weekly" "After working on Washington, I knew there was a story to tell about his reliance on spies during the Revolutionary War.
