The Secret Road Mystery Paperback Book Bruce Lancaster from Perma Books 1955
HIDDEN HERO
He wore no uniform. He carried no sword. Few men could have fought for their country the way Robert Townsend did!
Despised by most loyal Americans, he was a hated turncoat-a traitor, a friend of the British officers and their women.
But to those who traveled the perilous "secret road" of Washington's intelligence service, he was a hero.
They knew that the daring man who posed as a Tory was the patriot who exposed Benedict Arnold, conquered a British fleet and weakened the British grip on New York.
Tense and exciting, The Secret Road is the story of the American spies who gambled their lives among men who were their sworn enemies.
Here is the amazing story of a man who lived two lives-each des- perate with risk to himself and his country.
