Prima edizione

Dublin, Marino Books, (1999). 1st ptg. VG PB. During WWII the U.S. sent several intelligence agents undercover to Ireland including the head of the whole operation. William J. Donovan. One Martin Quigley retained his cover in Ireland, commercial work on behalf of the American film industry during his stay in 1943. His job was to check on the beliefs that existed abroad about Irish neutrality and to corroborate or reject what previous agents had found. Several hundred pages of his findings in documents were declassified in 1997 by the U.S. govt. Far from being pro-German the Irish Govt tacitlys supported the allied position while finding it politic to maintain the semblance of neutrality.
