Ten Thousand Eyes: The Amazing Story of the Spy Network That Cracked Hitler's Atlantic Wall Before D-Day Book
Here is the story of one of the most courageous and successful spy operations of all time. When France fell to the Germans in 1940, a slight, scholarly twenty-eight-year-old captain of engineers and professor escaped to England, and with General Charles De Gaulle and André Dewavrin, he organized an intelligence service with one goal-to secure a blueprint for Germany's Atlantic Wall and place it in the hand of the Allies. What follows is a remarkable story of a clandestine spy network comprised of sailors, farmers, painters, housewives, and children all unified in one purpose-the fall of the Third Reich. Richard Collier tells the story of how ordinary men and women from all walks of life risked torture and death in German-occupied Normandy to furnish the Allied forces with detailed information of the German coastal defenses, knowledge essential for D-Day success. Working from material both published and unpublished, Collier has created an authentic record of one of the most remarkable episodes of World War II, a human story of a group of ordinary people whose faith paved the way for Eisenhower's great sweep on D-Day.Read More
