520 1 $a"Winston Churchill once remarked that the secret warfare waged in World War II equaled "the most fantastic inventions of romance and melodrama."" "William Breuer vividly confirms that assessment with these compelling accounts of Allied and Axis intelligence throughout World War II. Here are tales of patriotism and treachery, saboteurs, sleepers, and moles, giving fresh perspectives on the best-known interceptions and deceptions of the war - the breaking of the German code Enigma and the Japanese code Purple, Operation Overlord's successful disguise of the D-Day invasion - as well as little-known feats of civilian bravado in the face of danger."
520 8 $a"Drawn from personal interviews, private correspondence, trial records, and declassified documents from official archives, this volume provides detailed, startling revelations about the secret wars fought behind the battlefields - and the headlines - of World War II."--Jacket.
