"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.

Think of Alan Furst with muskets." --Richard Brookhiser, author of Founding Father "A compelling portrait of [a] rogues' gallery of barkeeps, misfits, hypochondriacs, part-time smugglers, and full-time neurotics that will remind every reader of the cast of a John le Carré novel." --Arthur Herman, National Review From the Hardcover edition., "Fascinating…. tells how the work of the spies proved to be the tipping point in the summer of 1778, helping Washington begin breaking the stalemate with the British….
