Notes

• The most comprehensive book about Rose has to be Ann Blackman's Wild Rose: The True Story of a Confederate Spy.
• I also found an old book, Rebel Rose: Life of Rose O'Neale Greenhow, Confederate Spy, by Ishbel Ross particularly useful (if pretty rah-rah Confederacy, which gets kind of intense).
• Rose's memoir is very readable, too.

Music

• Marnie, from Bernard Hermann's score
• Don't Worry, by Zoe Keating
• Debut, by Christopher Ferreira
• El cascabel de plata, by Federico Durand
