Book Description
An instant bestseller when it was first published in 1946, this memoir recounts the author's nearly forty years of service in naval intelligence, beginning in 1908. One of the first to venture into the realm of psychological warfare, Ellis Zacharias was awarded the Legion of Merit with two gold stars for his contributions. Among the highlights of his impressive career was the role he played in convincing the Japanese to accept surrender in 1945, a subject he deals with in fascinating detail in this book. Zacharias gives readers access to rare psychological profiles that he prepared for the Office of Naval Intelligence on leading political and military figures in Japan. His book also recounts his exploits as a young naval attaché with the U.S. Embassy in Tokyo in the early 1920s. In the early months of the war readers join him in the thick of combat in the Pacific, first aboard a cruiser under his command and later in a battleship. Of particular interest are descriptions of his one-man radio broadcasts beamed at Japan between V-E and V-J days that received kudos from Adm. Ernest J. King for helping bring about the surrender.

Book Description
the fourth in a series of children’s stories masterfully designed by the author to meet two primary goals. The first is to aid Spanish-speaking children in their pursuit of English, and English-speaking children in their pursuit of Spanish. The second is to draw parents and children closer together in a storyteller’s world -- a world they can easily imagine and build on. Filled with drama, fairy tales, excitement, and adventure, the entire series is worth adding to a parent’s collection! With his parent’s encouragement, Juan dreams of being a secret agent on a heroic mission. His partner, Secret Agent Sara, has been captured by enemy agents. Juan must race to her rescue, but there are several obstacles to overcome. Sara’s location is a long way off, and time is running short. There are lakes, fields, forests, hills, and canyons between them. Even with his modern tools and special training, can Agent Juan get there in time? Un Agente Secreto, En Una Misión Secreta... es el cuarto de una serie de historias para niños diseñadas magistralmente por el autor para cumplir dos objetivos principales. El primero es ayudar a los niños de habla hispana en su búsqueda del inglés y a los niños de habla inglesa en su búsqueda del español. El segundo es acercar a padres e hijos en el mundo de un narrador, un mundo que pueden imaginar y construir fácilmente. Llena de drama, cuentos de hadas, emoción y aventuras, vale la pena agregar toda la serie a la colección de los padres. Con el apoyo de sus padres, Juan sueña con ser un agente secreto en una misión heroica. Su compañera, la agente secreta Sara, ha sido capturada por agentes enemigos. Juan debe correr para rescatarla, pero hay varios obstáculos que superar. La ubicación de Sara está muy lejos y el tiempo se acaba. Hay lagos, campos, bosques, colinas y cañones entre ellos. Incluso con sus herramientas modernas y su entrenamiento especial, ¿podrá el agente Juan llegar a tiempo?
