22 - ALLURING AMERICAN ACTRESS... AND UNION SPY?! | Pauline Cushman | Civil War

Pauline saw her nation being destroyed from within, torn apart by Southern Rebels. And though at first, she refused to get involved.   But when the call came to stand and fight, she did, in the only way she knew how, as a special spy for Abraham Lincoln, no less, a mission she executed with great skill, helping to save her beloved United States.   In the end, however, she died sick and all alone far from home, tragically hoping that someone might come to offer comfort.   Today, while few Americans have ever heard of her, we at the HEROES FOR FREEDOM remember Pauline Cushman and honor her. Union Spy, yes! And a darned good one.   But more so, a patriotic Hero who gave all she had. An amazing American woman we hope is never forgotten.   I’m Rick Robison and this is the HEROES FOR FREEDOM Podcast.     **Want more incredible stories like these for your home??** ---> HEROES FOR FREEDOM MANUALS (Volumes 1-3) - Purchase on Amazon!     OTHER EPISODES YOU MAY LIKE: 21 - OUR HERO WHO WAS "PRONE TO WANDER" | Robert Robinson (Pastor/Hymnist) | 1700s 15 - FROM APOSTATE TO PROPHET | Abraham Lincoln | Civil War (Part ONE) 06 - THE SLAVE WHO HELPED SAVE AMERICA | James Armistead Lafayette (American Spy) | Revolutionary War     ADDITIONAL RESOURCES: -Join our newsletter and get a free gift! - Click Here -Contact us at: [email protected] -Website: www.TheLegacyGen.com -Find our video episodes on YouTube
