About this ebook
Joseph Orton Kerbey's autobiography details his fascinating life, from his experience as a spy for the Union during the Civil War as a young boy to his work as a press telegraph reporter in the U.S. Senate Press Gallery. Later, he entered the diplomatic service of the United States and was posted as a consul to Para, Brazil. Kerbey's life was filled with adventure and intrigue, and his connections to notable figures such as Andrew Carnegie add to the richness of his story.
