Books on OSS
Sorry if this has been discussed, but I am looking for good books on any and all OSS Operations during WW2, particularly in Italy and Greece. The 2 most popular ones by by Smith and O'Donnell are way too general in scope to be of much use to me. Thanks in Advance.

Re: Books on OSS
Outstanding, Thanks so much Orwell! As I said, the other books I mentioned were well written, but just too general for what I am needing for my paper.
Re: Books on OSS
Good afternoon Black Edelweiss,
I can't suggest any specific book but do believe you'll get much info for your research by surfing around the website of the OSS Society.
It's at http://www.osssociety.org
They've got a book section and much more.
Hopefully the website assists you in your research.
Warm regards,
Bob
