SPY: Sisterhood of Peeping Youth
Rebecca Gray
The Five Best Female Spies
From Best to Not as good as the one before her, the Five Best Female Spies!
Elizabeth VanLew
A brave woman for the union, Elizabeth freed her slaves during the civil war. She had a hidden room in her house where she kept Union POW's and Spies. She ran a spy ring within the confederate armed forces, and developed a cypher and hid these messages in hollowed out eggs which would flaunt her intelligence. Elizabeth also talked to hurt troupes to get the positions of the confederate army. She was so crafty that she would send General Grant fresh flowers and a copy of the Richmond newspaper, to show off how deeply her spy ring ran. She placed her best friend and past slave in the home of the Confederate President to spy on him.
Elizabeth is the best female spy because she had such a deeply rooted spy ring and her influence was so big, she was very brave and filled with cunning.
