{"product_id":"9781476669694","title":"The CASSIA Spy Ring in World War II Austria: A History of the OSS's Maier-Messner Group!","description":"After Hitler annexed Austria in 1938, the Gestapo began silencing critics. Many were shipped to concentration camps; those deemed most dangerous to the Reich were executed. Yet a few slipped through the Gestapo's net and organized resistance cells. One group, codenamed CASSIA, became America's most effective spy ring in Austria during World War II. This first full-length account of CASSIA describes its contributions to the Allied war effort—including reports on the V-2 missile, Nazi death camps and advanced combat aircraft and tanks—before a catastrophic intelligence failure sent key members to the guillotine, firing squad or gas chamber.","brand":"McFarland \u0026 Company, Incorporated Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48357818204400,"sku":"9781476669694","price":30.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781476669694_p0.jpg?v=1764631207","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781476669694","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
