His mission was to establish a spy network in New York City, the location of the British headquarters. The Culper Spy Ring was active in and around New York City for five years, during which time no member of the network was ever exposed.

    The History of Kings is vividly brought to life in this emotionally charged narrative of King Josiah and his contemporaries. Although the major portion of this novel centers upon the life and reign of King Josiah in particular, his grandfather King Manasseh, and father King Amon, are also vividly portrayed in the early chapters of this book to illustrate the conditions under which the child Prince Josiah matured and came of age along with many youthful life adventures and experiences that helped to mold him into the great King and leader of his people that he was. 
    While the Scriptural history of the Kings is honorably held to with nothing sugar-coated or glossed over, much of what history does not tell us is also realistically included in this account, (such as King Manasseh's prison sentence in Assyria), to create a seamlessly flowing storyline, complete with the customs and lifestyle of ancient Judah, the beauty of the land, and many unique surprises and gems of wisdom that you will surely find to be well worth your reading and or listening time. The uncompromising integrity and strength of character that King Josiah displayed during an age of vile corruption is a shining historical legacy that will encourage your faith to stand strong against the many challenges of our modern times.
