<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>*Now with a new afterword containing never-before-seen research on the identity of the spy ring's most secret member, Agent 355</b> <p/>"This is my kind of history book. Get ready. Here's the action." --BRAD MELTZER, bestselling author of <i>The Fifth Assassin</i> and host of <i>Decoded</i> <p/>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. <p/>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.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A powerful new book . . . that reads like a modern-day spy thriller."<br>--<i>The Blaze</i> <p/>"A tale of patriotism and daring."<br>--<i>The Washington Times</i> <p/>"Anyone who believes that foreign espionage is pointless should read this book. More importantly, anyone who thinks the founding generation is irrelevant to modern America must read this book."<br>--<i>The Daily Caller</i> <p/>"A fascinating read, highlighting some of our nation's unknown heroes--heroes who never sought credit or recognition. Brian Kilmeade places them in their proper historical context--as brave patriots who defended the American Revolution."<br>--<b>General Stanley McChrystal</b> (U.S. Army, retired) <p/>"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."<br>--<b>General Tommy Franks</b> (U.S. Army, retired) <p/>"Fast paced, factual, entertaining . . . and important!"<br>--<b>Michael Hayden</b>, former director of the National Security Agency and the Central Intelligence Agency <p/>"A historical gem. I loved it."<br>--<b>Donald Trump</b> <p/>"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. <i>George Washington's Secret Six</i> is a gripping and informative read."<br>--<b>Congressman Pete King</b>, chairman of the Counterterrorism and Intelligence Subcommittee, House of Representatives Committee on Homeland Security <p/>"Thrilling and accessible.... one of the more significant, compelling, and fascinating pieces of the country's history."<br>--<i>Breitbart.com</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Brian Kilmeade </b>cohosts Fox News Channel's morning show "Fox & Friends" and also hosts the nationally syndicated radio show "Kilmeade & Friends."
