Revolutionary Spies - The Culper Ring

from Histories · host Angelo Velez

In this episode, I dive into the shadowy world of espionage during the American Revolution, exploring the incredible story of the Culper Ring. These everyday heroes—farmers, shopkeepers, and tavern owners—risked their lives with secret codes, invisible ink, and laundry signals to outwit the British and help George Washington secure victory. Join me as we uncover how their courage shaped a nation and set the stage for modern espionage.
