What he didnt expect to see was James, an escaped enslaved person who had served as a guide to the British army. Or at least thats what Cornwallis was led to believe. In fact, James wasnt actually a runaway-he was a spy for the American army.But while America celebrated its newfound freedom, James returned to slavery in Virginia. His service as a spy hadn't qualified him for the release he'd been hoping for. For James the fight wasn't over; his next adversary was the Virginia General Assembly. He'd already helped his country gain its freedom, now it was time to win his own.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52157573726496,"sku":"NEW1467749338","price":22.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/A1BiGx2Sb1L.jpg?v=1786047785","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/a-spy-called-james-the-true-story-of-james-lafayette-revolutionary-war-double-agent-1467749338","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
