Join us at the release party for Professor Joel Paul's new book, Unlikely Allies: How a Merchant, a Playwright, and a Spy Saved the American Revolution.

Unlikely Allies is the story of three remarkable historical figures – Silas Deane, Caron de Beaumarchais, and Chevalier d'Eon – who successfully used espionage, betrayal, and sexual deception to help win the American Revolution. The book was just released and has already received many rave reviews.

"A tantalizing review of early American foreign policy."
—Kirkus Review

“Rollicking and surprising, this is history as it really happened—as it was made by all-too-human actors. Unlikely Allies is a lively read and an important counterpoint to Founder hagiography.”
—Evan Thomas, bestselling author and Assistant Managing Editor of Newsweek
