THE SPY OF THE REBELLION AS TOLD BY THE FAMOUS ALLAN PINKERTON: FOUNDER OF THE PINKERTON DETECTIVE AGENCY, AND HEAD OF THE "UNION INTELLIGENCE SERVICE" DURING THE CIVIL WAR. "Real History" is told by people it happened to, and you cannot experience more reality than hearing about spies and counterspies during the Civil War from the man who ran operations from the Union side - Allan Pinkerton. Already a famous detective, Pinkerton was called on to aid his country - first to prevent an assassination of President-elect Abraham Lincoln, and then to head a group of brave men and women charged with rooting out secession, in both North and South. This exciting first-hand account of what actually happened to those men and women is a historical and literary gem, one which, even 130+ years later, has immense meaning to America.
