About this product

Product Information

When George Washington beat a hasty retreat from New York City in August 1776, many thought the American Revolution might soon be over. Instead, Washington rallied-thanks in large part to a little-known, top-secret group called the Culper Spy Ring. He realized that he couldn't defeat the British with military might, so he recruited a sophisticated and deeply secretive intelligence network to infiltrate New York. Drawing on extensive research, Brian Kilmeade and Don Yaeger have offered fascinating portraits of these spies- a reserved Quaker merchant, a tavern keeper, a brash young longshoreman, a curmudgeonly Long Island bachelor, a coffeehouse owner, and a mysterious woman. Long unrecognized, the secret six are finally receiving their due among the pantheon of American heroes.

Reviews
"James Bond is a rank amateur compared to the heroic efforts of the Culper Ring. Brian Kilmeade and Don Yaeger's work demonstrates why the story of the secret six should be anything but a secret in American history." - HARVEY MACKAY , author of Swim with the Sharks Without Being Eaten Alive "A rollicking read by Kilmeade and Yaeger, acknowledging a long overdue debt to six American heroes." - KARL ROVE "We would not have won the Revolution and secured our freedom, were it not for the leadership of George Washington and the courage of the spies he set in motion. George Washington's Secret Six is a gripping and informative read." - CONGRESSMAN PETE KING , chairman of the Counterterrorism and Intelligence Subcommittee, House of Representatives Committee on Homeland Security "It would have been an honor to have served with Robert Townsend and the rest of the Culper spies in any of the deep-cover intelligence operations I spearheaded over twenty-seven years." - WAYNE SIMMONS , coauthor of The Natanz Directive ; CIAOutside Paramilitary Special Operations "Freedom is not free, never has been, and never will be. Kilmeade and Yaeger have done a wonderful job in reminding us all of the cost. Great read." - GENERAL TOMMY FRANKS (U.S. Army, ret.) "A historical gem. I loved it." - DONALD TRUMP

  • Fantastic & Interesting Book!

    History books are usually 'dry' and difficult to read (meaning boring) but this book is well written, and connects actual historical facts in an interesting and compelling way. It definitely keeps your interest and it's hard to put the book down. It's easy to read and follow. I definitely recommend it - especially for those that love to read and/or loves history. You won't regret buying and reading this book!
