James Armistead Lafayette portrayed by Stephen Seals.
Everybody loves a good spy story. How about an American slave that volunteers to spy for the Continental Army, and does such a credible job, he is recruited to be a double agent for the British, gaining the confidence of both General Cornwallis and traitor, Benedict Arnold?
It’s an exciting story of a bogus “runaway slave” living a dangerous life behind enemy lines ferreting out information and spreading “mis-information” that allows the American forces to triumph at the Battle of Yorktown. A true story told by Colonial Williamsburg’s Stephen Seals.
