This is your chance for anyone who is a fan of Turn: Washington's Spies and has always wanted to learn more about the mysterious Robert Townsend. I picked this up at Mount Vernon last year, and I have been chugging along, reading a very pages at once. This was incredibly interesting regarding all of the information it gives on the politics and laws of the time. The cast is similar to the show: Abraham Woodhull, Ben Tallmadge, Caleb Brewster, and John Graves Simcoe; however, it takes a step away from the show's women, who were not nearly like their real-life counterparts. It dives into the fascinating story of the Spy '355' that was critical to their success, but history does not know who it was. This book discusses an enslaved woman named 'Liss' or Elizabeth, who labored at the Townsend home. This book benefited me as a guide at Monticello who discusses enslaved history daily. The depth of detail the authors go into on the laws regarding slavery and how complicated and different they are depending on what colony is in question.
