EARLY REVIEWS FOR LINCOLN’S SPIES

“A meticulous chronicle of all facets of Lincoln's war effort.” —Kirkus “Waller delivers a highly readable and detailed accounting of spies and spycraft during the Civil War… For those wanting to see spying through both a wide-angle lens in terms of patterns of espionage and a microscopic one in terms of personalities, Waller's book is the one to read.”—Library Journal “Waller’s narrative moves chronologically, alternating between each of the four subjects and recounting their exploits in detail. This is a long but cracking good tale.” —Publishers Weekly
