Review Quotes: "This is a wonderful book that, while primarily for kids, can be enjoyed by adults as well. Written in a clear, concise voice, it begins, as does the war, in September 1939. It describes the countries and forces involved, discusses how the war evolved, defines the role spies played, and reveals the identities of some of the most famous spies, double agents, and code breakers of World War II. This book would make the perfect gift for children--and some adults, as well. It taught me a lot about the people who played important roles in the Allies' battle to win World War II. You will not be disappointed."--Theodore Jerome Cohen, mystery, thriller, and fiction writer
