| Abstract
|
:
|
In his latest collection, popular historian William Breuer chronicles the action behind the lines during World War II. Focusing on espionage, underground activities, and special forces operations, Breuer captures the human drama that has made his earlier books so successful. From impossible rescues and ingenious underground networks to amazing paratroop operations and U.S. Ranger missions within enemy positions, Daring Missions of World War II presents over seventy fascinating tales of espionage, sabotage, and derring-do.
