History Of The United States Secret Service (1867) is a comprehensive account of the origins and development of the United States Secret Service. Written by La Fayette C. Baker, a former chief detective of the Secret Service, the book traces the agency's history from its inception in 1865 to the end of the Civil War and beyond. Baker provides a detailed examination of the Secret Service's early operations, including its role in combating counterfeiting and protecting the President of the United States. He also explores the agency's involvement in the investigation of the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln, as well as its efforts to combat espionage during the Civil War. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of law enforcement in the United States, as well as those interested in the Civil War and the assassination of President Lincoln.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
