{"product_id":"9781636244532","title":"Burn, Bomb, Destroy : The German Sabotage Campaign in North America, 1914-1917 by Michael Digby","description":"The true story of German secret agents engaged in a campaign of subversion and terror in the United States before and during World War I.   Many believe that World War I was only fought \"over there,\" as the popular 1917 song goes, in the trenches and muddy battlefields of Northern France and Belgium-they are wrong.   There was a secret war fought in America; on remote railway bridges and waterways linking the United States and Canada; aboard burning and exploding ships in the Atlantic Ocean; in the smoldering ruins of America's bombed and burned-out factories, munitions plants, and railway centers; and waged in carefully disguised clandestine workshops where improvised explosive devices and deadly toxins were designed and manufactured. It was irregular warfare on a scale that caught the United States woefully unprepared.   This is the true story of German secret agents engaged in a campaign of subversion and terror on the American homeland before and during World War I.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56312692113781,"sku":"9781636244532","price":22.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781636244532.jpg?v=1762823331","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781636244532","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
