Spies, Slaves, and Secrets of the Civil War: The Fact Behind The Fiction of In Freedom's Shadow

Join best-selling author, Robert Hilliard, for a look at the world of espionage in the Civil War. Hilliard examines the newly invented technology and tools of spy craft, the successes and some colorful failures, and the key players. His latest book, In Freedom’s Shadow, is based on the heroic true story of John Scobell, an African American slave who escaped bondage at the outset of the Civil War only to return to the Confederacy as a Union spy. This espionage thriller brings to life the details of life as a spy and an inside view of the workings of the Pinkerton Agency. The book won a 2024 International Firebird Book Award for African American Fiction, and the Spring 2024 PenCraft Award as a Best Book for Historical Fiction. Robert Hilliard began his career as a reporter for the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review and has since written articles for outlets such as Upland Almanac, Pennsylvania Wildlife, and Western Pennsylvania History Magazine. His first book, A Season on the Allegheny, was published in 2012 and quickly hit the Top 10 in multiple Amazon categories. --- Visit us in-person at Gettysburg Beyond the Battle Museum, recently voted "Best New Museum" by USA TODAY readers, at 625 Biglerville Road, just north of Gettysburg.
