Description: In 1780 France entered the American Revolution. A French fleet was bringing crucial aid to the patriots. Did the British know? Would they intercept? George Washington needed answers – fast. To get them, he turned to his most trusted spies. Upon Secrecy follows the Culper Spy Ring on their most daring and important mission. Washington couldn’t outfight the British. Could he outspy them? Reviews"Paging students and teachers studying the American Revolution: Here's a lively, obscure story that will make you sit up. Castrovilla's slim book about the Culper spy ring may look like a picture book, but the text would be a great supplement for high school history classes… The research behind both text and illustrations is impeccable." |
