Synopsis: |
This book is devoted to the 60th anniversary of the founding in 1942 of General Donovan's intelligence organisation, which ultimately became the Office of Strategic Services. The last decade has witnessed a resurgence of scholarly interest in the OSS, encouraged partly by the large-scale declassification of its records during the 1990's. The OSS remains a rare example of a modern intelligence agency whose internal documentation is almost entirely available to the public through record group 226 of the U.S. National Archives located at College Park, Washington D.C. Contributions deal with "Dirty Tricks and Deadly Devices: OSS, SOE, NDRC and the Development of Special Weapons and Equipment (B. B. Fischer); Lessons From the Failure of the OSS/SOE DAWES Mission (J. Dows); OSS Medical Intelligence in the Mediterranean Theater (J. D. Clemente), the Fortier Board and the Transformation of the Office of Strategic Services (M. Warner), The Prosecution of Nazi War Criminals and the OSS (M. Salter) |
