Our story is about the genesis and evolution of these phantoms and men-who-never-were, these artists and magicians at the front line who operated in stealth and secrecy.

Throughout the course of World War II, Allied forces engaged in elaborate deceptions to fool Hitler's armies. A ragtag group of Bohemian artists and creatives were assembled to devise these strategies, including rubber dummy tanks, faux railway lines and falsified wireless intelligence. They made armies appear out of thin air, baffling German forces and ensuring Allied success in battle. For fifty years, information on the Ghost Army strategies was classified. It is only recently that details of their heroic actions have come to light.

This book includes details of SHAEF command centre who organised many of the deceptions, the First US Army Group (the so-called 'Ghost Army'), the 23rd Camouflage Engineers, and accounts of the double cross agents who risked their lives and freedom to mislead Nazi High Command. Featuring never-before-seen information from veteran interviews, The Ghost Army brings to life the fascinating story of the men and women who conned Adolf Hitler.

A very interesting and insightful look at one of the WWII less known and praised companies. The classified nature of the Ghost Army job has kept the value of it outside public awareness for decades, and is very succinctly explained across the book that is well researched, although there are times you are left wanting for more, not because it’s missing, but because it’s so enthralling that you want to have it fleshed out a little more.

Very good narrator with a good cadence,

It might be difficult to follow all the companies and platoons numbers in an audiobook, but other than that is a well spent time for anyone interested in military history.

An interesting look at a hidden strategy of WWII
