Paperback. The Confederate Cipher is a historical novel that depicts a portion of the British Government's role in American politics leading up to the War Between the States, despite the uncertainties of history surrounding it. The novel also tells the story of Henry L. Hudson, a young man who nearly caused trouble for his wealthy family and was sent to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point to keep him away from a brewing scandal. Many talented people have meticulously researched the American Civil War/War of Northern Aggression/War Between the States. Although analysts don't always agree, there is usually consensus on the central issues. When there were differences of opinion about the events and times in this novel, the author chose the version that aligned most with the story's thesis.The British had fought two wars on the American continent and had a direct interest in agricultural products from the South and in manufactured goods from the North. Assuming they remained uninvolved is strange. Events such as the death of Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, husband and consort of Queen Victoria, in 1861 affected British politics in unexpected ways. Eventually, although the British enforced the blockade and sought an alternative cotton source in Mexico, British firms smuggled arms and ammunition. They did not pursue military intervention by the Royal Navy and the British Army. Their codes, ciphers, and systems of statecraft and tradecraft, however, were used primarily by the Confederacy. Thus, we have the Confederate Cipher and the care and training of Henry Hudson, which unfold on the pages of this and subsequent novels in the Duelist Series. Can spies truly fall in love, or do the damaging secrets necessary for honesty and intimacy interfere with it? Some argue that they can fall in love but also admit it's a significant professional risk, potentially endangering careers, security, and lives, as emotions can impair judgment and create vulnerabilities. Lieutenant Henry L. Hudson, U. S. Army, is about to run headlong into this Gordian Knot. Love happens in the spy world, but it's a double-edged sword, capable of being a strength, a tool, or a devastating weakness. This item is printed on demand.
