George Washington’s Secret Spy War
John A. Nagy was a scholar and expert on 18th-century deception who served as a consultant for museums and historical sites before his passing. In the book, he details how Washington utilized a sophisticated network of intelligence officers and civilians to outmaneuver the British military. The book uncovers the hidden history of code-breaking, invisible ink, and double agents that were essential to the Continental Army's survival. By analyzing Washington’s personal correspondence and ledger books, Nagy proves that the General’s success was as much a product of his skill as a spymaster as it was his leadership on the battlefield.
New York: St. Martin’s Press, 2016. 1st edition. Hardcover with dustjacket. The book is in NEAR FINE condition with only VERY small denting on the bottom front board and a few tiny dark marks on the back cover. The dustjacket is in FINE condition.
