About this title

Synopsis

The shadowy undercover work of the American OSS and the British SOE, usually behind enemy lines or close to the action, makes a story of extraordinary daring and great personal heroism. In a compilation of actual events in World War II, this book demonstrates the important role of these two undercover organizations in the Allied victory. Using first-hand research with veterans and original archive material, it describes many covert actions and tactics: codebreaking, blockade running, guerilla action, bombing missions, sniper work, assassinations, running double agents, training work and recruitment methods in both the American OSS and the British SOE.

Store Description

BookLovers of Bath is based in the rural idyll of Peasedown St. John in Somerset (God's Own Country) in the south west of England and actually very nearly in Bath. After 20 years of being ?internet only? I have now opened a shop, Fact or Fable, in the premises of our now-closed Post Office. With over 10,000 books in my, recently shrunken, storage unit and another 5,000 or so in the shop I run an old-fashioned book business with every book listed, graded, picked, packed and posted by my own fair hand? abetted by my Jack Russells who are really, not, helpful.
