George Washington's Secret Six by Brian Kilmeade and Don Yaegar


During George Washington’s birthday month, this is the perfect book to help us appreciate the part the “Secret Six” played in aiding Washington’s success. The authors researched this “Culper Ring,” which consisted of six ordinary citizens: a Quaker reporter, a longshoreman, a Long Island bachelor, a coffee shop owner, a print shop owner, and Agent 355, a woman whose identity has yet to be discovered. Although this is non-fiction, the reader will feel a part of every plot they carried out. Great appreciation for our American freedom!
