  • An interesting account of wartime espionage to mislead the German High Command on the run up to the invasion of Sicily

    This book was written by war time naval spy Ewan Montagu in 1953 under UK Government authorisation to counter memoirs etc being written by ex German officers. it is now complemented by a more detailed account written following the release of war time papers. See Operation Mincemeat by Ben McIntyre. I found it interesting to read both accounts.
