The Double Agents continues the adventures of Dick Canidy and the O.S.S. as they try to stop Hitler and the Nazi's. It is well written and researched as all of Griffin's books. Each time I read one it is like meeting up with old friends. As for the plot there is just enough history added in with the fictional characters to appeal to any history buff.

As a history nerd, with a degree in history, I can't believe I waited until now to read this book. I think it was deemed 'too new' when I was in high school/college to be included in the curriculum.
The book obviously is about guns, germs, and steel, and compares/contrasts civilizations throughout the world. It was an interesting angle, and I really liked it.
