product description

Description

At just twenty-one years old, Benjamin Tallmadge stepped into history as one of George Washington's most trusted officers during the American Revolutionary War. Handpicked by Washington to organize a secret intelligence network inside British-occupied New York, Tallmadge created the legendary Culper Spy Ring-a covert operation that helped turn the tide of the Revolution.

In this riveting firsthand memoir, Tallmadge recounts his extraordinary experiences:

Fierce Revolutionary War battles and close encounters with death
The shocking betrayal of Benedict Arnold and its impact on the fight for independence
The tragic capture and execution of his Yale classmate, Nathan Hale
Washington's unforgettable farewell to his officers, revealed in a rare and deeply emotional portrait of the great commander

Originally written for his children, Tallmadge's memoir is much more than a family keepsake-it is a vital primary source from one of America's unsung heroes of liberty. His words place you alongside the patriots who fought, spied, and sacrificed to secure freedom against overwhelming odds.

Whether you are a student of American history, a lover of Revolutionary War tales, or fascinated by espionage and the birth of the United States, this modern edition-with fresh annotations for today's readers-offers a powerful, intimate view of the fight that forged a nation.

Step into the world of the Revolution through the eyes of a man who lived it.
