Author: Denis Smyth. Deathly Deception tells the true story of the classic World War Two intelligence plan to pass misleading strategic information to Hitler and his Generals that was immortalized in the 1956 Hollywood film The Man Who Never Was. Drawing on a wealth of recently available documentation, Denis Smyth shows how British strategists solved a multitude of medical technical and logistical problems to implement their deceptive design to confuse the enemy.
