Описание: NEW YORK TIMESBESTSELLER *;Turn: Washingtons Spies, now an original series on AMC

Based on remarkable new research, acclaimed historian Alexander Rose brings to life the true story of the spy ring that helped America win the Revolutionary War. For the first time, Rose takes us beyond the battlefront and deep into the shadowy underworld of double agents and triple crosses, covert operations and code breaking, and unmasks the courageous, flawed men who inhabited this wilderness of mirrorsincluding the spymaster at the heart of it all.

In the summer of 1778, with the war poised to turn in his favor, General George Washington desperately needed to know where the British would strike next. To that end, he unleashed his secret weapon: an unlikely ring of spies in New York charged with discovering the enemys battle plans and military strategy.



Washingtons small band included a young Quaker torn between political principle and family loyalty, a swashbuckling sailor addicted to the perils of espionage, a hard-drinking barkeep, a Yale-educated cavalryman and friend of the doomed Nathan Hale, and a peaceful, sickly farmer who begged Washington to let him retire but who always came through in the end. Personally guiding these imperfect everyday heroes was Washington himself. In an era when officers were gentlemen, and gentlemen didn t spy, he possessed an extraordinary talent for deceptionand proved an adept spymaster.

The men he mentored were dubbed the Culper Ring.

The British secret service tried to hunt them down, but they escaped by the closest of shaves thanks to their ciphers, dead drops, and invisible ink. Roses thrilling narrative tells the unknown story of the Revolutionthe murderous intelligence war, gunrunning and kidnapping, defectors and executionersthat has never appeared in the history books. But Washingtons Spies is also a spirited, touching account of friendship and trust, fear and betrayal, amid the dark and silent world of the spy.
