THE M ROOM: SECRET LISTENERS WHO BUGGED THE NAZIS IN WW2

Book ID/图书代码： 00530018C00021

English Summary/英文概要： As seen on pbs and Channel 4 documentary "Spying on Hitler’s Army"... This is the story of the German émigrés who fled Hitler’s regime and became secret listeners for British Intelligence during the Second World War. Behind the walls of the M Room (M for ’miked’) they bugged the conversations of over 10,000 German PoWs, including 59 German Generals at Trent Park in North London. Providing a detailed, oft humorous, insight into life of the Generals in captivity, the book shows the farcical ‘stage-set’ in which they found themselves. But against this backdrop, the secret listeners eavesdropped on admission of war crimes and terrible atrocities against Russians, Poles and Jews; as well as details of an SS mutiny in a concentration camp in 1936, and Hitler’s human ‘stud farms’. This story places firmly on record just how much British and American Intelligence knew about Hitler’s annihilation programme and how early. Why at the end of the war were these files not released for the war crimes trials to bring the perperators to justice? Was this one of the darkest secrets of the war? These transcripts, and thousands of others, of some of the most important Nazi secrets remained classified until 1999. During their clandestine work the secret listeners did not set eyes on a single German PoW, yet their work and the intelligence they gained was as significant for winning the war as Bletchley Park and cracking the Enigma Code. For over sixty years the listeners never spoke about their work, not even to their families. Many went to their grave bearing the secrets of the nation which had saved them from certain death.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 正如（美）公共广播公司和第四频道纪录片‘纳粹秘密监听档案’ (Spying on Hitlers Army) 中看到的那样…… 这是一个关于德国移民在二战期间逃离希特勒政权，成为英国情报机构的秘密监听者的故事。在M室（M代表“牛奶室”）的墙后，他们窃听了超过1万名德国战俘的谈话，其中包括伦敦北部特伦特公园的59名德国将军。这本书提供了一个详细的，幽默的，洞察将军们被囚禁的生活，展示了他们发现自己所处的滑稽的“舞台布景”。但在这种背景下，秘密监听者窃听了对俄罗斯人、波兰人和犹太人犯下的战争罪和可怕暴行的供认；以及1936年集中营党卫军叛变的细节，以及希特勒的人类“种马农场”。这个故事清楚地表明，英美情报机构对希特勒的灭绝计划早就心知肚明。为什么在战争结束的时候，这些文件没有被公布，以供战争罪审判，将肇事者绳之以法？这是战争中最黑暗的秘密之一吗？这些记录和其他成千上万的一些最重要的纳粹机密直到1999年。在他们的秘密工作中，秘密监听者没有看到任何一个德国战俘，但他们的工作和他们获得的情报对赢得战争的意义不亚于布莱切利公园和破解恩尼格玛密码。60多年来，这些隐秘的监听者从不谈论他们曾经的工作，甚至对他们的家人也避而不谈。许多人带着把他们从死亡中拯救出来的国家的秘密进入坟墓。(Sandy)
