IN DIGUISE is a fascinating collection of biographies sharing the true-life stories of women spies who fought heroically and secretly for their countries. This is the only book for girls that reveals the very real and exciting lives of famous women spies throughout history, from popular chef Julia Child to Civil War activist Harriet Tubman. Interspersed with fascinating and exciting tales are fun activities for girls such as how to make your own spy camera, a recipe for invisible ink, how to create an undercover spy disguise, ways to invent and decode secret messages as well as exciting spy factoids and trivia, such as "Escape and Evasion" scarves, lipstick pistols and even "topo-quilts" used during the Civil War.
