The activities of the underworld, operating in the armed forces as
well as the civilian black market, are one of the great untold
stories of World War II. While the war produced many acts of
self-sacrifice, it also made people rich. One Liverpool ship
repairer, for instance, cheated the government in a single year of
what today would be ?20 million. Donald Thomas draws on extensive
archives to tell the extraordinary and frequently ludicrous story
of these less heroic Britons.
