The Secret Service: The Field, The Dungeon And The Escape is a book written by Albert D. Richardson. It is a thrilling account of his experiences as a Union spy during the American Civil War. The book is divided into three parts: The Field, The Dungeon, and The Escape. In the first part, The Field, Richardson describes his missions as a spy, gathering information about Confederate troop movements and passing it on to Union commanders. He details his encounters with Confederate soldiers and civilians, as well as the dangers and challenges he faced while operating behind enemy lines. The second part, The Dungeon, recounts Richardson's capture by Confederate soldiers and his imprisonment in various Confederate prisons, including the notorious Libby Prison in Richmond, Virginia. He describes the harsh conditions, brutal treatment, and constant threat of disease and death that he and his fellow prisoners endured. The final part, The Escape, tells the story of Richardson's daring escape from prison and his subsequent journey back to Union lines. He describes the risks and obstacles he faced, including being hunted by Confederate soldiers and navigating treacherous terrain. Overall, The Secret Service: The Field, The Dungeon And The Escape is a gripping tale of espionage, imprisonment, and escape during one of the most tumultuous periods in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
