New SpyCast episode!
It’s 1864, and the Confederacy is losing the Civil War. A group of spies and saboteurs has set up a base in Montreal, Canada. Today, we would call this a sanctuary or safe haven. Canada would become home to several infamous Confederate missions, many of which inspired Tim Wendel's historical fiction masterpiece, Rebel Falls. Though the tales are fictional, they are grounded in real-life stories from history. Guest host Dr Mark Jacobson sits down with @Tim_Wendel as he takes us across the border into the world of Civil War espionage.

I’m currently reading and enjoying Lewis Schrager’s debut novel, The Radical Radiance of the Fishing Fly. It’s a lyrical novel of two brothers on a journey of personal discovery fly-fishing in Alaska. a.co/d/dttLr4d

REBEL FALLS author @Tim_Wendel's father taught him that sailing is a metaphor for life—a way to overcome obstacles. It's something Tim lives by. Listen to him talk about it on @siriusxmpotus's American Voices: bit.ly/4coZswK (at 45:15). @CornellPress
