Resumen del Editor
Welcome to the intriguing world of an adventurous American intelligence agent, Colonel Sidney Forrester Mashbir (1891-1973), who spent the 1920s and 1930s in alliance with the Japanese royal family and other top leaders of Japan. Together, they valiantly delayed and attempted to prevent conflict between their nations and the outbreak of WWII.
In this thrilling saga, we explore the life of Mashbir, a real-life James Bond, a master spy, who pioneered the beginning of the CIA. He utilized secret diplomacy and dangerous missions to shape world events. His long career began in the early 1900s, continuing into the Atomic Age!
Mashbir so embraced the Japanese language and culture, that he achieved a closer intimacy with Emperor Hirohito than any Westerner. In spite of Mashbir and his Japanese allies' courageous, peace-keeping efforts, World War II erupted. Mashbir was then forced to take a pivotal role in defeating Japan, a nation and its people whom he had so befriended.
Sixty-five years after the end of World War II, President Barack Obama awarded the Congressional Gold Medal, the nation's highest civilian honor, to the thousands of mainly Nisei, Japanese Americans, who had served under Colonel Mashbir's command in a top secret intelligence organization called ATIS. This award was given in recognition of their major contributions to winning that conflict.
The Emperor and the Spy is an historical novel based on the author's acquisition of Colonel Mashbir's never-before-revealed intimate letters, secret official documents, and photographs. It is a rare occasion when the personal papers of a spy come to light! These primary source materials, along with other diverse historical archives were extensively researched. This was combined with interviews with Mashbir's family, giving a new window to history!

Historia
In 1960 Argentina, a covert team of Israeli agents hunted down the most elusive war criminal alive: Adolf Eichmann, chief architect of the Holocaust. The young spy who tackled Eichmann on a Buenos Aires street - and fought every compulsion to strangle the Obersturmführer then and there - was Peter Z. Malkin. For decades Malkin's identity as Eichmann's captor was kept secret. Here he reveals the entire breathtaking story - from the genesis of the top-secret surveillance operation to the dramatic public capture and smuggling of Eichmann to Israel to stand trial.

I do not pretend to have given an exhaustive picture of the Polish Underground, its organisation and its activities. Because of our methods, I believe that there is no one today who could give an all-embracing recital...This book is a purely personal story, my story. Jan Karski's Second World War memoir is a heroic act of witness: the courageous testimony of a man who risked everything for his country. First published in 1944, the book became an instant bestseller in the US while the war still raged in Europe.

But when Mohammed was 23, he secretly received a copy of the Bible, and what he read cast doubt on everything he’d previously believed. After connecting with Jews and Christians on social media, and at various international interfaith conferences, Mohammed became an activist, making it his mission to promote dialogue and cooperation in Yemen.

A terrorist bomb explodes during a South Korean celebration of the anniversary of the election of its first president. Alarms are raised in Washington. No one is claiming responsibility. The first suspect is North Korea. Could it be making a power play against South Korea and unification? If so, how will the U.S. respond? Paul Hood, Director of the Op-Center, must answer these questions. The Op-Center, a largely autonomous new agency which takes on the government's toughest security problems, is only six months old, and has never been given a foreign crisis until now.

History is about so much more than memorizing facts. It is, as more than half of the word suggests, about the story. And, told in the right way, it is the greatest one ever written: Good and evil, triumph and tragedy, despicable acts of barbarism and courageous acts of heroism.The things you've never learned about our past will shock you. For example, the reason why gun control is so important to government elites can be found in a story about Athens. Not the city in ancient Greece, but the one in 1946 Tennessee.

What would life be like for a Black boy growing up in Nazi Germany? This unprecedented autobiography answers that question with the spellbinding true story of Hans J. Massaquoi’s life in Hamburg during the height of Hitler’s regime. Hans is the son of a Black Liberian diplomat father and a white German mother. His father returns to Africa at the beginning of the war, leaving them behind in poverty without the means to flee. Within this tense atmosphere, increasingly violent Nazi policies and Allied bombing raids make Hans and his mother’s lives a day-to-day survival struggle.

This is the bizarre tale of 12 young American soldiers who are deployed to Iraq in the summer of 2006. Rather than fight the enemy in combat, the men are unexpectedly assigned to guard the country's notorious leader - Saddam Hussein - in the months leading to his execution. Living alongside and caring for their "high-value detainee" in a former palace dubbed The Rock and regularly transporting him to his raucous trial, many of the men begin questioning some of their most basic assumptions.

This was an amazing story of an unsung American hero and I'm so glad I got a chance to read it. Stan really brought Mashbir's life to life!

Tremendous accounting of little known facts
Tremendous accounting of little known facts of Japan and one American Patriot in the first half of the 20th century. Starts off a bit slow, but hang in there, it's worth it.

Little-known American and Japanese History
Colonel Mashbir is not a name that springs to mind when discussing American military and world events in the first half of the 20th century. But it should. He spent a lifetime in service to his country, and in so doing, decades in service to the world in general and specifically to Japan. His friendship with Emperor Hirohito was hugely important in the surrender and rebuilding of Japan after WW2, and General MacArthur relied heavily on Mashbir's knowledge of Japanese culture. I enthusiastically commend this book to your attention.
