Churchill's Wizards by Nicholas Rankin
The real story of how Winston Churchill and the British mastered deception to defeat the Nazis - by conning the Kaiser, hoaxing Hitler and using brains to outwit brawn.
Nicholas Rankin spent twenty years broadcasting for BBC World Service where he was Chief Producer and won two UN awards. His first book for Faber, Dead Man's Chest, followed in Robert Louis Stevenson's footsteps from Scotland to Samoa and was much enjoyed by Graham Greene. His second, Telegram from Guernica, was a widely praised biography of the groundbreaking war-correspondent and front-line propagandist George Lowther Steer. His bestselling Churchill's Wizards, was 'a completely delightful and entertaining read' in the Daily Telegraph. His most recent book is Ian Fleming's Commandos.
