Deceptions of World War II

Much has been written about the great battles and courageous acts of World War II; not so about the schemes and ruses of cloak-and-dagger agencies operating at the time. In this book, the author presents more than eighty little-known tales of illusions, masquerades and fakery that were often decisive factors, providing advantages that could mean the difference between victory or defeat.
