Double Crossed: The Missionaries Who Spied for the United States During the Second World War by Matthew Avery Sutton (Hardback)

This 2019, 350-page, illustrated hardback tells the previously untold story of how rabbis, Christian missionaries, and other religious activists doubled as American spies during World War II. Drawing on extensive research, Double Crossed reveals how these covert operatives—recruited by the Office of Strategic Services—carried out espionage missions across Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, often in conflict with their spiritual callings. With extensive notes and an index, this authoritative account exposes a deliberately hidden facet of church-state collaboration in modern America, showing how faith and spy craft became intertwined in the fight against totalitarianism.
