Summary

"German Spies in England: An Exposure" by William Le Queux is a revealing look at the secret world of German spies operating in England during World War I. The book highlights the danger England faced, exposing the methods used by spies and the lack of concern from the British government and public. Le Queux uses his own experiences and involvement with British authorities to paint a picture of how German agents were able to thrive, emphasizing his frustration with the British government's lack of action against the growing threat. By sharing his observations and documenting events, Le Queux works to show the extent of the secret network and wake people up to the threat of espionage.

About the Author

William Tufnell Le Queux was an Anglo-French journalist and writer. He was also a diplomat, a traveller, a flying buff who officiated at the first British air meeting at Doncaster in 1909, and a wireless pioneer who broadcast music from his own station long before radio was generally available; his claims regarding his own abilities and exploits, however, were usually exaggerated. His best-known works are the anti-French and anti-Russian invasion fantasy The Great War in England in 1897 (1894) and the anti-German invasion fantasy The Invasion of 1910 (1906), the latter becoming a bestseller.
