German & Italian Spies in the US. Sources?

[Carl Schwamberger]

All I have on my shelf is Farragos very old 'Game of the Foxes'. Can anyone give me some reliable sources for German & Italian espionage in the US? Some quick summaries of Axis activity from these would be very much appreciated. Who were these spies, how active were they, were they effective?

Thanks

Check 'Hitler's spies' by David Kahn. For Italians? I don't know.

I think the greatest German spy success was the Norden story:

Another example of hubris and obsession with a technological 'magic bullet' failing. Beyond that there is a bit of irony that a German intelligence sucess was with a item that did not work as well as expected.
