Confederate Spies at Large

The narrative centers on Tom Harbin and Charlie Russell, two Confederate spies entangled in a plot to assassinate Abraham Lincoln. Harbin, a prominent figure in the conspiracy, facilitated John Wilkes Booth's escape after the assassination. Despite being one of the most wanted men, Harbin evaded capture and was rumored to have hidden abroad. However, the book reveals evidence suggesting he returned to live and work openly in Washington, D.C., as early as 1866, challenging longstanding beliefs about his fate.
