Sir William Stephenson (of A Man Called Intrepid fame) set up shop in Rockefeller Center to build a vast intelligence network ~ British Security Coordination (BSC) ~ the full story of which is now told for the first time. Stephenson's mission came at a time when the United States was still deeply influenced by isolationism. Stephenson's people soon launched an astonishing bagful of dirty tricks ~ they unmasked Axis spies, planted propaganda in American newspapers, and slipped beautiful female spies into the Vichy and Italian embassies in Washington to abscond with the naval ciphers of the two Nazi allies. Stephenson's agents also infiltrated American labor unions, harassed their political enemies in Congress, and fed British propaganda and false rumors to such prominent journalists as Walter Winchel and Drew Pearson who were happy to give them wide circulation. Much of this took place before the U.S. had entered the war, when the country was still neutral territory and British spying was illegal. But President Roosevelt winked at the law, and FBI chief J. Edgar Hoover collaborated as well, though reluctantly. After Pearl Harbor Stephenson and the British spies helped William J. Donovan set up the OSS which eventually became the foundation for the CIA. In 1945, Stephenson ordered three of his subordinates ~ Gilbert Highet, Tom Hill and Roald Dahl ~ to prepare an official report of the network's activities, of which fewer than ten copies survived all these years in utmost secrecy. Though there have been many rumors over the years of the existence of the report, this is the first time it has been made public in its complete and unexpurgated form.
