OSS Operation Black Mail: One Woman's Covert War against the Imperial Japanese Army

The book presents the story of the remarkable American Elizabeth P. McIntosh (1915-2015) who fought World War II on the front lines of psychological warfare. McIntosh spent eighteen life-changing months serving in the U.S. Office of Strategic Services in what has been called the "forgotten theater," China-Burma-India, where she crafted ‘black propaganda.’ This propaganda was designed to demoralize the enemy through prevarication and deceit and, ultimately, to convince him to surrender.
