八月的一天：伊恩·弗莱明，《谜》和对迪佩的致命袭击[有声读物]

1942年8月，在不到六个小时的时间里，近1000名英国、加拿大和美国突击队员在法国迪耶普港丧生，几十年来，这一行动似乎没有任何实际意义。这是D日的预演，还是盟国为了安抚斯大林对在西方建立第二条战线的不耐烦而做出的姿态？加拿大历史学家戴维·奥基夫（David O’Keefe）利用迄今为止的机密情报档案证明，这次灾难性的、看似徒劳的袭击实际上是，英国海军情报局的伊恩·弗莱明（Ian Fleming）设立了一项任务，作为“紧缩”政策的一部分，该政策旨在捕获与四旋翼谜机有关的材料，从而使布莱切利公园（Bletchley Park）的艾伦·图灵（Alan Turing）等破译密码者扭转第二次世界大战的潮流。
One Day in August: Ian Fleming, Enigma, and the Deadly Raid on Dieppe [Audiobook]
In less than six hours in August 1942, nearly 1,000 British, Canadian, and American commandos died in the French port of Dieppe in an operation that, for decades, seemed to have no real purpose. Was it a dry-run for D-Day, or perhaps a gesture by the Allies to placate Stalin’s impatience for a second front in the west? Canadian historian David O’Keefe uses hitherto classified intelligence archives to prove that this catastrophic and apparently futile raid was, in fact, a mission set up by Ian Fleming of British Naval Intelligence as part of a “pinch” policy designed to capture material relating to the four-rotor Enigma Machine that would permit codebreakers like Alan Turing at Bletchley Park to turn the tide of the Second World War.
