G.I. G-Men

The Untold Story of the FBI's Search for American Traitors, Collaborators, and Spies in World War II Europe

They collaborated with Nazis and Fascists. Conspired against Allies in World War II. Committed unthinkable acts of treason. And triggered a secret manhunt. The mission was part of the FBI's "European Operation." The targets were United States citizens plotting against their own country. The goal: to identify and capture these traitors hiding in the shadows of war-torn Europe. To accomplish this, a small group of federal agents assumed new identities. It is one of the most fascinating spy stories of World War II—and one that's never been fully told. Until now.

This meticulously researched book provides shocking new details behind this crucial World War II operation. From J. Edgar Hoover's attempt to expand FBI operations overseas to the agency's covert ties to Britain's MI5; from the shocking exposure of espionage activities in France and Italy to the final convictions of Nazi war criminals at the Nuremberg trials—this incredible saga of spy and counterspy is brought vividly to life by author Stephen Harding in what is destined to be a classic of World War II literature.

G.I. G-Men is a must-listen for military and history buffs, espionage fans, and anyone who loves a great adventure story.

Uneventful non starter wasted time investigating cases going nowhere

Nearly all of the people who were profiled were either not charged or got off easy. Not enough meat to be a full length book.

Great History of FBI During WW2

Throughly enjoyed the story and the reader is great. My hearing is poor and I can hear his tone of voice very well.
