Example : According to Spy Techniques of the Revolution, “The American Spies had many different Techniques that they used To Help The Americans Win The Revolutionary War.”
Explanation/Analysis: Some of the techniques were. “Invisible ink” where someone wrote with invisible ink which was a mixture of ferrous, sulfate, and water. They would write with this and send it to the Americans. To see what was written they would place it over a flame and you could read the message. Another technique that the spies used was masked letters. For these you would get a letter and a piece of paper with a shape cut out of it. When you places this paper on the letter you would be able to read the letter. These techniques were used so that the spies could write about the British and give the letters to the Army without the British never catching the American Spies. This let the Americans know what was happening which led them to have a step in the lead of what the British territory was like and what they were going to do.
