Travel back in time to the birthplace of modern espionage: the court of Queen Elizabeth I and sneak into the world of Tudor Spies!

The chaos in religious policy and its political implications laid the foundation for treachery, betrayal, and deception. And one element made this time, particularly as we move into the reign of Elizabeth I, a hotbed of what was then called “spiery”: that element was literacy. People now had the ability to deliver messages across distances and in large groups.
 
Literacy became a weapon in the war of religion. Once literacy makes communication this widespread, there’s an immediate desire to control it. Enter the spies.

History shows us what's possible.
