About this listen

The Secret Side of the Civil War


John Scobell, a former slave, works as a spy for the Union, collecting secrets in northern Virginia as the Civil War marches down upon the land. But he has no idea that Peg, the wife he left behind in Richmond, has also become a Union spy operating in the heart of the Confederacy.

The Lincoln League is based on the true story of John Scobell, the first African-American spy in the U.S. intelligence service. This thrilling novel also tells the little-known story of the Lincoln League, a network of African-American spies.

In the beginning, John saw the war as a fight for honor and freedom. But his world unravels when someone begins picking off Lincoln League agents, one by one.
For John and Peg, it suddenly becomes a fight for survival.

It was a great story. I did not like the computerized reading! I really enjoyed learning about black spies and how their lives were affected.

The title drew me in because of Lincoln, I thought it must have something to do with slavery.
