Home Events - U3A Javea History Talks A presentation not to be missed! Seduction, Secret Codes, and “Sympathetic Stain”:  The Highs (and Lows) of Espionage in The Great Rebellion, 1775-1783, by guest speaker American aviator and historian, Paul R. Misencik.

A presentation not to be missed! Seduction, Secret Codes, and “Sympathetic Stain”:  The Highs (and Lows) of Espionage in The Great Rebellion, 1775-1783, by guest speaker American aviator and historian, Paul R. Misencik.

Learn about the unique personalities, and the secrets of men – and women – on both sides who risked their lives in the shadowy, and perilous game of wartime espionage. Sometimes artful, sometimes bumbling, but always nail-biting, Paul’s stories of 18th century spies who worked for both the American and British sides will leave you with a new appreciation for the craft of espionage:

  • The spy who started the shooting war
  • The spy who ended the war
  • The spy who was the model for how not to spy
  • The young and lovely female “James Bond”
  • The spies who developed Sympathetic Stain and White Ink
  • A surprise parting gift for attendees who want to carry on a covert correspondence with a secret admirer!
