After the Revolutionary War, at a pivotal moment when Washington and Spain were fighting for control of North America, one American war hero deflected from honor and signed a secret allegiance with Spain. President Theodore Roosevelt said, "In all our history, there is no more despicable character." Have you ever heard of James Wilkinson?
A huge thanks to New York Times bestselling author, Andra Watkins, whose new book I Am Number 13 pairs international aid volunteer Emmaline Cagney with the unsettled ghost of James Wilkinson—the former American general who's stuck in an in-between world called Nowhere. I'm also grateful for the scholarly insight of James Lewis, a professor of history at Kalamazoo College.
