Its agents carried out some of the most dangerous acts of espionage and guerrilla warfare in World War Two; gathered intelligence behind enemy lines in Europe and Asia; tracked down Nazi spies in Canada and the U.S.; fought Nazi espionage to keep Allied shipping lines open from Central and South America . . . Among the players at Camp X were some of the most renowned names of that time; Sir William Stephenson - "A Man Called Intrepid"; FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover; OSS Chief "Wild Bill" Donovan; and Ian Fleming, creator of 007, James Bond. From secret files in Washington, London and Ottawa, and eye-witness accounts, comes the incredible story of the Allies' secret army.*****
