Spies on American Soil

The Irregulars: Roald Dahl and the British Spy Ring in Wartime Washington
by Jennet Conant.
I finished this last weekend, first reading about one fourth and then picking up the audio version. It was very interesting. I think that the conclusion was that Britain and America were close because Churchill and Roosevelt trusted one another. Unfortunately, the Americans closed the door to the British after the war. I know they were facing food shortages after the war. I never really understood why the Americans didn't help. It will only want me to read more. A couple of years ago I read a very shocking book on American foreign policy, Confessions of an Economic Hitman by John Perkins, published 2004. It made me question all my long held beliefs about the good in the American government. I was at the bookstore last week and was surprised to see the book is now out in paperback and was located on a table for high school reading. So, someone is listening. Pick up the Irregulars if you like world war II spy stores, only this time it is in Washington and it is a true story.
Associate of Ian Fleming and William Stevenson, it an interesting book.
