Author Thaddeus Holt spoke about his book The Deceivers: Allied Military Deception in the Second World War published by Scribner Book Company.

The book chronicles the deceptions practiced by the Allied forces during World War II including misinformation about the D-Day invasion, double agents throughout Europe and Asia, and the formation of organizations devoted to spreading misinformation. In order to compile this information the author used recently declassified documents and archival information collected from the National Military Command Center at the Pentagon. After prepared remarks, Mr. Holt responded to questions from the audience. This event was part of the Military Affairs Symposium, which was held at the City University of New York. close
