Read about the warrior wizards and master illusionists of World War II who used camouflage and deception as the ultimate stealth weapon. In a world of satellite imaging technology, computed-generated global communications and stealth weapons, the artifice and camouflage of the Ghost Army seem like quaint historical facts. But today’s digital wizardry stands on the shoulders of selected Tommies and GIs. The imagination and skills of these creatively gifted soldiers and academic boffins confounded Nazi troops and saved thousands of lives during the course of World War II. Gerry and Janet Souter bring the story of the Ghost Army to life, narrating these extraordinary tales of deception with information gleaned from recently declassified military records, the unit diary of Frederic Fox, and an exclusive interview with Ghost Army veteran Bernie Burnstein. About the authors Gerry and Janet Souter are a prolific author team with over 50 titles, including The Vietnam War Experience, The Afghanistan-Iraq Wars and Battle Tanks. Gerry has worked as a photojournalist, documentary film maker and award-winning television producer, while Janet is a former news coordinator and has written for the Chicago Tribune, the Daily Herald and Early American Life. The couple live in Arlington Heights, Illinois, USA.
