Title Description
When General Douglas MacArthur made his escape from the Philippines, vowing "I shall return," it took a massive covert effort to make his return a reality. MacArthur established the super-secret Allied Intelligence Bureau (AIB), to gather intelligence and carry out undercover warfare against the Japanese on an enormous scale. From the coast watchers - planters, missionaries, and telegraph operators who occupied remote islands while keeping alert for any signs of Japanese movement - to the American commanders of guerilla armies, from double agents operating under the Japanese's noses to the radio operators who intercepted Japanese signals, the men and women of the AIB made a tremendous contribution towards MacArthur's return and American victory in the Pacific.

"[Breuer is] a first-class historian." (Wall Street Journal)
