The story of the intelligence war in South Africa during the Second World War is one of suspense, drama and dogged persistence. In 1939, when the Union of South Africa entered the war on Britain's side, the German government secretly reached out to the political opposition, and to the leadership of the anti-war movement, the Ossewabrandwag. The Nazis' aim was to spread sedition in South Africa and to undermine the Allied war effort. The critical strategic importance of the sea route round the Cape of Good Hope meant that the Germans were also after naval intelligence. Soon U-boat packs were sent to operate in South African waters, to deadly effect. With the help of the Ossewabrandwag, a network of German spies was established to gather important political and military intelligence and relay it back to the Reich. Agents would use a variety of channels to send coded messages to Axis diplomats in neighbouring Mozambique. Meanwhile, police detectives and MI5 agents hunted in vain for illegal wireless transmitters. Hitler's Spies presents an unrivalled account of the German intelligence networks that operated in wartime South Africa. It also details the hunt in post-war Europe for witnesses to help the government bring charges of high treason against key Ossewabrandwag members.

Download Story Of The War In South Africa Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
Story Of The War In South Africa details the events and developments of the Second Boer War, fought between the United Kingdom and the Dutch colonial states of South Africa for the dominion of the territory, from the years 1899-1900. This therefore does not include the period of Boer insurgency that lasted from 1900-1902, but only the major conflict. Written by a United States naval captain, it places particular emphasis on the military rather than political or diplomatic aspects of the war, describing major battles and military maneuvers from both sides up to the conclusion of organized fighting.
