Deception in World War II

CRUICKSHANK, Charles

Oxford University Press

Although Denmark and Norway were occupied for most of World War II, their patriot forces aided the Allied cause with the help of arms, equipment, and training supplied by the British Special Operations Executive (SOE). Based on closed papers, this official history of the SOE in Scandinavia draws on agents' contemporary reports to describe vital operations in Scandinavia against the Germans, the techniques of the agents, and the role played by the Royal Air Force and the famous Shetland Bus Service in equipping and transporting the patriots. The book also pays a special tribute to the women of the resistance in Denmark and Norway.

Henry VIII and the Invasion of France (Illustrated History Paperback Series)

Sutton Publishing+ltd

The official history of the German occupation of the Channel Islands, this book is based on previously untapped sources of information, including papers from Government departments, the Island’s own wartime files, as well as files left behind by the Feldkommandantur in Guernsey and Jersey. Dr. Cruickshank provides a full account of the German invasion, the subsequent landings of various British agents, raids, and of an attempt to psychological warfare to end the Occupation. He also looks at how the islanders and Wehrmacht lived, the reality of collaboration with the occupying powers, and the extent of support for the Resistance. The significance of this episode in the history of World War II, which the Germans saw as their first conquest of British soil and a springboard to further occupation of British territory, is essential reading for anyone interested in the war.
