The astonishing story of the Duke of Windsor's betrayal of his own country and the part he played in the course of the Second World WarThe Nazi sympathies of the Duke of Windsor have long been no secret until but now, few have suspected that his activities amounted to nothing less than treason. Hidden agenda is the result of the author's research into the intruiging Charles Eugene Bedaux, a Frenchman suspected of spying for the Germans in the First World War, and in whose house in France the Duke of Windsor married Wallis Simpson in 1937. Following the abdication, the British Government asked him to continue working for them diplomatcially, specifically to inspect the French troops in the period of the Phoney War in 1939. Incredibly, the Duke turned double agent and, using Bedaux as a courier, shared his intelligence of the French positions with the enemy with catastrophic consequences.Dawning new evidence found in European archives, the FBI and interviews with key individuals has thrown new light on a letter given to the author's father by Albert Speer, putting into contaxt the events of 1939.

Book Description (Subject: Between the World Wars - General) This book is the result of the author's research into Charles Bedaux, a Frenchman suspected of spying for the Germans in the First World War, and in whose house in France the Duke of Windsor married Wallis Simpson. Bedaux, through his connections with high-ranking Nazis, ensured that the Duke of Windsor found a sympathetic audience for his own fascist ambitions. Evidence unearthed in European archives, from the FBI, and interviews with key individuals has thrown new light on a letter given to the author's father by Albert Speer. The book provides a fresh perspective on the abdication crisis and how it altered the course of the Second World War. (Published: 2000) (Publisher: Macmillan) (ISBN: 0333901819) (Pagination: 343pp illustrations) (Condition: Very good in d/w) UL-XXXXXX. Seller Inventory # 12858-01
