520    "What makes a good missionary makes a good spy. Or so 
       thought "Wild" Bill Donovan when he launched a secret new 
       program under the Office of Strategic Services. His 
       recruits, in turn, believed an American victory would help
       them protect their foreign ministries and expand the 
       kingdom of God. In Double Crossed, historian Matthew Avery
       Sutton tells the extraordinary story of the entwined roles
       of spycraft and faith in World War II. Sutton shows how 
       missionaries, though acutely aware of the conflict between
       their faith and their role as secret agents, nonetheless 
       played an outsize part in the war, carrying out bombings 
       and assassinations. After securing victory, those who 
       survived helped establish the CIA, ensuring that religion 
       continued to influence American foreign policy. Gripping 
       and authoritative, Double Crossed is a remarkable account 
       of the spiritual stakes of World War II."--|cProvided by
