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

Technology, by Gareth Dickson

Longest Road, by Gaussian Curve

Troubles, by Sylvain Chauvau

Compesicion en Rojo, by Bernardo Bonezzi
