Özet:
The chronicles of World War II are filled with exotic tales of espionage, mysterious kidnappings, and bizarre subplots. Now, in the vivid, fast-paced tradition of Unexplained Mysteries of World War II, popular military historian Breuer has collected this exciting treasury of little-known events, including the Boston Red Sox catcher recruited to spy in Japan, the strange and influential "weather wars" of Greenland, Hitler's secret buzzbomb, and many more. All of the fascinating information was gleaned from official archives, interviews, declassified military reports, newspapers, magazines, and other sources.
