Here, for the first time, are the colorful stories of such German agents as \"Alfredo,\" probably the most important enemy operative in the Americas; \"King,\" who was decorated for his daring exploits but who carelessly mentioned the real names of his collaborators in secret radio messages; the bumbling Janos Salamon; and the debonair Hans Christian von Kotze, who ultimately betrayed the Abwehr (German Military Intelligence).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEminently readable, Hitler's Secret War in South America resembles, but is not, fiction. It describes in detail the Allies' real battle against the Abwehr, a struggle highlighted by the interception and deciphering of German radio transmissions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Louisiana State University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47128257134832,"sku":"9780807153611","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780807153611_p0.jpg?v=1763726444","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780807153611","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
