Synopsis
Sylvanus G Morley (1883-1948) is widely known as an influential Mayan archaeologist. This intriguing book shows that he was arguably the greatest American spy of World War I. Morley came to the attention of the Office of Naval Intelligence in 1916, when reports that German agents were establishing a Central American base for submarine warfare first surfaced. Morley's field research provided the ideal cover for reconnoitring throughout the region. He made several extended research/intelligence-gathering trips along the Caribbean coast of Central America starting in 1917 and forwarded detailed reports and maps to ONI. While he found no noteworthy German activity, his activities permit the authors of this book to reconstruct the way ONI identified, recruited, placed, and debriefed field agents, nearly 150 of whom, many with academic ties, were funnelling data to ONI by the close of World War I. In a final chapter, Sadler and Harris extend the story of academic participation in intelligence work through the 1930s into the founding of 'Wild Bill' Donovan's Office of Strategic Services (OSS) at the beginning of World War II.

- t***m (223)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoI am delighted to have this Bible! My father recently passed away unexpectedly. I found this Bible and messaged the seller to ask a few questions so I could determine if it was the same kind of Bible he owned. Seller was quick to answer and help. The Bible was packaged carefully and arrived quickly, even over a holiday weekend. This seller deserves 5 stars for sure!
- c***c (1)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoThe book arrived in a very good condition, just as seen in the pictures and stated by the seller. It was well packaged and arrived much earlier than planned. Coasbooks answered my questions quickly and fully- even taking another picture of the book for me. I can’t recommend them enough!
- z***l (43)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoWOW! This transaction exceeded my all of my expectations. The seller shipped this book promptly and it arrived sooner than expected. The seller was very conservative in describing the book. The description rated the condition as acceptable. I would have rated it as good. The description stated the cover was scuffed. However, I have seen new paperbacks with more damage than is present on this book. My experience with this seller was EXCEPTIONAL.
