THE SPY WITH 29 NAMES: THE STORY OF THE SECOND WORLD WAR’S MOST AUDACIOUS DOUBLE AGENT

Book ID/图书代码: 11320014B69272

English Summary/英文概要: He fought on both sides in the Spanish Civil War. He was awarded the Iron Cross by Hitler and an MBE by Britain. To MI5 he was known as Garbo. To the Abwehr, he was Alaric. He also went by Rags the Indian Poet, Mrs Gerbers, Stanley the Welsh Nationalist - and 24 other names. He tricked Hitler over D-Day. He was the greatest double agent in history.

But who, exactly, was Juan Pujol?

Using his intimate knowledge of Spain and his skills as a crime novelist, Jason Webster tells for the first time the full true story of the character who captured the imagination in Ben Macintyre’s Double Cross. He tells of Pujol’s early life in Spain, his determination to fight totalitarianism -and his strange journey from German spy to MI5. Working for the British, whom he saw as the exemplars of freedom and democracy, he created a bizarre fictional network of spies - 29 of them - that misled the entire German high command, including Hitler himself. Above all, in Operation Fortitude he diverted German Panzer divisions away from Normandy, playing a crucial role in safeguarding D-Day and ending the war, and securing his reputation as the most successful double agent of the war.

Meticulously researched, yet told with the verve of a thriller, The Spy with 29 Names uncovers the truth - far stranger than any fiction - about the spy behind one of recent history’s most important and dramatic events.

究竟哪个身份才是真正的胡安•普霍尔呢?

"A wonderfully intriguing and evocative tale, stuffed with extraordinary and exotic characters and a real addition to the wartime espionage canon" (Patrick Bishop, bestselling author of BOMBER BOYS and FIGHTER BOYS)

"Jason Webster, Hispanophile and former Spanish resident, has brought both his crime writing skills and his Iberian expertise to telling the astonishing story of Juan Pujol, aka Agent Garbo, World War Two’s most intriguing and important spy -- a tale that would be dismissed as incredible if found in a novel. It’s gripping, authentic, surreal -- and true. If you liked Ben Macintyre’s ’Operation Mincemeat’ you’re going to love this one -- it’s an absolute winner" (Nigel Jones, author of COUNTDOWN TO VALKYRIE: the attempts to assassinate Hitler)
