Descriptionof Operation Lena and Hitler's Plot to Blow up Britain
Manufacturer

Hitler's Germany made sustained efforts to inflict a terror campaign on the streets of Britain through secret agents and agent provocateurs. The aim was to blow up military, industrial, transport and telecommunication targets, to lower morale among the civil population and to affect the war effort. Even before the outbreak of war, the Nazis provided the IRA with assistance for their plan to sabotage the British mainland. Prior to their planned invasion in the summer of 1940, the Nazis were keen to recruit members of the Welsh and Scottish Nationalist Parties to sabotage British targets and over the course of the war infiltrated dozens of trained agents from countries including Norway, Denmark, Holland, France and Cuba. How successful were MI5's efforts to fake acts of sabotage and arrange media coverage to fool the enemy into thinking their agents were still at large and on task? This is the story of the successes and failures of the Nazi terror offensive in Britain 1938-1944.

The volume also deals with the support given by the Germans to the IRA and Scottish and Welsh separatists in order to carry out sabotage operations against Great Britain.
