Synopsis
Find out the astonishing story of how Britain's intelligence operatives, experts, and special operations teams contributed to the Allies' victory in the Second World War. The Bletchley Park codebreakers who solved the German Enigma cipher cut the length of the war by an estimated two years, while the Double Cross system, in which German secret agents were "turned" by the British to feed their Nazi agent-runners with false information, ensured the success of the D-Day landings. Not only does WWII Codebreakers and Spies reveal new details about these remarkable operations, it also tells the compelling tale of how MI6 transformed the disaster of lost networks across Europe into triumph. The stories range from extraordinarily courageous to bizarre, with desperation driving the intelligence services to recruit astrologers and even a stage magician to help retrieve intelligence and allied aircrew from Nazi-occupied Europe. The book includes reproductions of painstakingly researched and rare documents from the archives of MI5, MI6, SOE, and Bletchley Park, as well as a letter from James Bond author Ian Fleming to the Chief of Naval Intelligence. Historian Michael Smith thrillingly recounts the daring and often moving lives of the heroes and heroines who risked their lives for victory., Includes reproductions on the page of painstakingly researched and rare documents from the archives of MI5, MI6, SOE and Bletchley Park., The Bletchley Park codebreakers who solved the Enigma Cipher and the Double Cross system that "turned" German secret agents helped cut the war by years and ensured the success of D-Day.

Codebreakers and Spies tells the astonishing story of how Britain's intelligence operatives, experts and special operations teams contributed to the Allies' victory in the Second World War. The work of the Bletchley Park codebreakers in breaking the German Enigma cipher is estimated to have cut the length of the war by around two years, saving countless lives, while the Double Cross system, in which German secret agents were 'turned' by the British to feed their Nazi agent-runners with false information, ensured the success of the D-Day landings. Codebreakers and Spies not only reveals new details about these remarkable operations but also tells the compelling story of how MI6 turned the disaster of lost networks across Europe into triumph. The stories range from extraordinarily courageous to bizarre, with desperation driving the intelligence services to recruit astrologers and even a stage magician to help retrieve intelligence and allied aircrew from of Nazi-occupied Europe. Intelligence historian Michael Smith thrillingly recounts the daring and often moving lives of the heroes and heroines who risked their lives for victory.
