A particular question that is seldom pondered over and yet is capable of carrying so many doubts within it: who are we? Who are we as a society who can do the things we do? Who are we who can suffer from them? Award winning poet and essayist Susan Griffin confronts these distinct questions in her work titled, “Our Secret”. Griffin believes that a basic understanding of the things that play a part in the growth of an individual is essential to understanding who we are. The way a child is raised dictates how that child is going to become later on in life. One of the distinct highlights of Griffin’s essay was her use of describing the progress of the V1 rockets in World War II. Griffin studies the aspects of human nature by using these missile developments as a metaphor to symbolize the raising of children and the factors that can influence a growing individual. One of the prime figures that Griffin uses pertaining to these growing individuals was Heinrich Himmler, leader of the Nazi secret police. Griffin uses Himmler as an example to demonstrate how big of a role a parental figure can play in the development of a person.

In Susan Griffin’s work titled “Our Secret”, she discusses the relationship between the present-day and the earlier life of different people. She also compares the private and public lives of other people. Her piece is set during World War Two in the 1940s. Throughout the entire piece, Griffin compares the lives of people evolved in World War Two, people who were affected by the war, and her own life. She shows how even though they lived separate lives, they are still closely related.

My topic is spies during World War II. During World War II, countries used spies to gather information about each other. It is a specific and broad topic. Since the fifth grade, I have enjoyed World War II history. It’s very fascinating to me. It is a very tragic and fascinating time period. Recently in May, I visited the Holocaust Museum with my school in Washington, D.C. and fell in love with this time period even more. I felt more connected with it. This war was so raw and has great stories behind it. I also feel somewhat connected to it because it was not even that long ago that this happened, we at least all have relatives that are alive that can remember hearing about it, that is what makes it so real to me. Just knowing about World War II occurred was not enough for me; I wanted to know who was behind it all.

The case in the relentless early months of the war, when Gen.George chanced an poorly equipped, poorly trained army of volunteers against one of the more impressive military organizations of the 18th century. Topnotch force enabled the British to forces to push back the Revolutionaries from their defensive structure in Boston and some places of New England.

When you think of the Civil War you think of bloody battles, muskets exploding, bayonets sinking into enemy soldiers, and people giving their lives for the sake of either the Union or Confederate States and what they believed in. But most people do not think of one very important factor in the Civil War. Espionage. Throughout this paper we will be exploring the secretive world of espionage in the Civil War from both of the opposing sides.

The 1920s was a time of dramatic change that swept quickly over the nation. This was a decade in which there was extreme economic growth along with a rise in consumer spending and a scared political atmosphere. During 1919 there was a drastic shift in fear from Germany to a fear of Communism which culminated in the Red Scare of 1919. This was a continuation of Woodrow Wilsons wartime campaign against anti-American movements, most frequently anarchists and communists. During World War I congress passed two sets of legislation that supported this: The Espionage Act and the Sedition act. The Espionage Act of 1917 was aimed at promoting patriotism and stopping people from speaking out against the U.S. involvement, while The Sedition Act amended the Espionage to more broadly cover speech, restricting Freedom of Speech. These laws were frequently used to imprison members of the IWW (Industrial Workers of the World), most notably Eugene V. Debbs. Another source of the Red Scare was the Russian Revolution, which transformed Russia into a communist state. The revolution scared Americans into believing one would happen in the U.S. These events start the 20s off at a bad time economically with high unemployment, socially with an anti-immigration stance and politically with the persecution of Anti-American opinions.

Throughout my childhood, and extending into my highschool reading career, I have enjoyed reading books that focus on complex issues that are omnipresent in our society, though reading about them through a fantasy setting is much more appealing and fascinating to me. One prominent example is the children’s fantasy book The Amber Spyglass, the third and final book in the “His Dark Materials” series written by Philip Pullman. This book analyzes in depth issues such as moral ambiguity, the pitfalls of power, and loyalty, all while simultaneously representing a coming of age novel where two children may be the necessary turning point in a huge war with heaven, as they are bombarded with others striving to gain their loyalty and the resulting power.

Do you thrive for an action-packed book, that you won’t be able to put down? If so, you have come to the right place! The Spy School Series by: Stuart Gibbs is one of my all time favorites, and a series anyone can love. Firstly, you should read this series because it is full of action and suspense. The main character, Ben Ripley is recruited to a secret CIA spy school where his mission is to uncover a mole in the spy school, but the catch is that nobody told him, so he has to figure it out on his own, and I almost forgot to mention that he’s had zero training and zero experience.
