About this listen
Explore the captivating history of the Culper Ring!
Spying and warfare have always gone hand-in-hand. From Julius Caesar to modern generals, we have accounts of commanders covertly gathering information about their opponents, ensuring they have the intelligence they need to conduct a war.
George Washington was not late to realize he needed a spy ring to defeat the British in the American Revolution. So, the Culper Ring was created, and their work during the American Revolutionary War was carried out in the shadows, often informally, and with a great deal of care for secrecy. Anyone caught spying was liable to be hanged by the British.
Based in New York during the British occupation, the Culper Ring provided vital intelligence from behind enemy lines. Their work gave Washington an insight into the British forces and their plans. They helped to turn the war in the revolutionaries' favor. And now, their story can be told once more.
Some of the topics covered in this book include:
- Before the Culper Ring
- The Birth of the Culper Ring
- Teething Troubles
- Rearrangement
- The Culper Ring at Work
- The View from the Other Side
- After Arnold
- Dying Days
- And a great deal more that you don't want to miss out on!

what passed behind the Revolution War
Any additional comments?
This book certainly shed the lights what passed behind the Revolution War and how George Washington succeeded the battle against the Britons. Amazed that women were involved as spies too!
