Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Death in the Mind
Few of the things which happened and lent themselves to rumor in the late September of 1942 can be told even now, although the considerations of security which then were domi nant do not, for the most part, now exist. A good many of the men, and women, of whom those stories were told are dead, and there is no reason to be too revealing about the dead - under the very peculiar circumstances, there is, indeed, every reason not to be revealing. Those same circumstances work even more strongly to protect certain men, and certain women, who are still alive. Some of the stories which were then known to be true, or strongly suspected to be true, will never be told. But some of them may be told, at least in part and guardedly. It would be absurd, for example, to deny that something hap pened to an American warship in Portsmouth Harbor on Sep tember 21. Too many people saw it happen, and heard it hap pen, although no newspapers anywhere had any comment.
