Spy for George Washington

Spy for George Washington

BY

Jay Leibold

Spying is dangerous business in this interactive book where YOU decide what happens next. Packed with 15 possible endings! Released in celebration of the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, this 80s classic returns to shelves.

YOU are a spy for the Colonists in the Revolutionary War. You’ve been entrusted with a special task: obtain the British plans and bring them back to General George Washington! But enemy patrols are everywhere. How can you get back through the British lines without suspicion? If you decide to set out in the dead of night, turn to page 12. If you decide to wait until dawn, turn to page 6. Whatever you decide, be careful—spying is a dangerous business. You might end up swinging by your neck on the Redcoats’ gallows or roasted alive by enemy Mohawks . . . or you could even end up saving George Washington’s life!

With added educational back matter about the Colonial time period, all just in time for the anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, this Choose Your Own Adventure retro classic is perfect for schools, libraries, nostalgia fans, and budding history buffs.
