Join us for an evening with author Alexander Rose! George Mason University Libraries invites the acclaimed historian to Merten Hall Room 1201 for the latest presentation in their popular Historical Intelligence Speaker Series.
Rose’s book “Washington’s Spies: The Story of America’s First Spy Ring” inspired the AMC television series “TURN: Washington’s Spies.” He will tell the story of George Washington’s personal intelligence network, the Culper Ring, at a moment of heightened interest in Revolutionary War history as Americans commemorate the 250th anniversary of our nation’s founding.
Most recently, he published “Phantom Fleet: The Hunt for Nazi Submarine U-505 and World War II’s Most Daring Heist,” which chronicles a secret U.S. Navy mission that took place shortly before D-Day. Both books will be available for sale at the event, courtesy of Bards Alley. After his presentation, Rose will stay for a signing.
