    • Více než desetiletý výzkum a sbírání materiálu umožnilo Faragovi sepsat ucelenější práci věnovanou nacistické německé vojenské rozvědce - abwehru, vedené admirálem Wilhelmem Canarisem. Využívá především dokumenty hamburské a brémské pobočky abwehru, které se specializovaly na špionáž proti Velké Británii, Spojeným státům a Francii v předvečer a v průběhu druhé světové války.
