About this listen
“Esta obra es un homenaje a aquellos valientes cuyas historias han sido olvidadas. El autor recupera apasionantes episodios olvidados de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, y nos ofrece los pasajes más sorprendentes y a los audaces protagonistas que han sido injustamente borrados de la memoria.” (Blog Me gustan los libros)
“Asista, de la mano de prestigioso autor Jesús Hernández, a las gestas más trágicas, las misiones más brillantes y las operaciones más secretas de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Descubra en Operaciones secretas de la Segunda Guerra Mundial el testimonio de heroísmo, valentía y coraje de los héroes secretos del mayor conflicto bélico de la historia.” (Revista Experpento)
“El estilo narrativo de Jesús Hernández rivaliza con el mejor cine de suspense sorprendiendo continuamente al público, página a página, con una historia llena de intensidad.” (Blog Eventalia)
“Es cierto que la llamada “Gran Contienda” no solo se habría de librar en el campo de batalla, también entre bastidores, con criptógrafos, asesinos profesionales, servicios de inteligencia y comandos secretos encargados de minar y acabar con la superioridad enemiga.” (Oviedo Diario)
Las pequeñas historias que se esconden bajo las grandes batallas de la Segunda Guerra Mundial:
los hombres que perecieron por cambiar el destino del mundo.
Si alguien todavía piensa que un hombre de a pie, una persona corriente, se debería resignar y presenciar la Segunda Guerra Mundial agazapado en su casa, está equivocado. Operaciones secretas de la Segunda Guerra Mundial viene a refutar esa idea y supone una novedad en el tratamiento del conflicto armado más complejo de la historia. La mayoría de los estudios sobre la guerra tratan con rigor las batallas, los movimientos de cientos de miles de soldados, pero esto no debe eclipsar la relevancia de estas pequeñas escaramuzas.
En esta ocasión, Jesús Hernández reúne estas operaciones que aparecían dispersas en los manuales y pone la lupa sobre ellas para que las conozcamos de un modo detallado y fiel. Narra las operaciones de un modo trepidante, como corresponde a estas historias de héroes anónimos y astutos espías, y consigue con ello darnos una precisa imagen de estos hombres, la mayoría de ellos voluntarios, que arriesgaron su vida porque confiaban en que cambarían el curso de la guerra y entrarían en la historia. Dividido en cuatro grandes apartados—“Golpes de mano”, “Atentados y secuestros”, “Historias de espionaje” y “Misiones audaces”—, nos desgrana el autor relatos tan fascinantes como el de los esquiadores que frustraron el sueño nuclear de Hitler, planes tan milimétricos como el del intento de asesinar a Stalin e historias pequeñas de hombres anónimos como la del padre de familia francés que, sin experiencia como espía y sin ayuda, logró cambiar el destino de la guerra y salvar Londres.
Razones para comprar la obra:
- La obra constituye una importante novedad temática en el mercado editorial ya que reúne y describe detalladamente las operaciones que aparecen dispersas en los manuales.
- El audiolibro no escatima recursos para mostrar el tremendo atractivo de estos héroes voluntarios y anónimos que, en la mayoría de los casos, dieron su vida por sus ideas y por su país.
- El autor es un prestigioso divulgador del tema que en esta obra trata uno de los aspectos más desconocidos de la Segunda Guerra Mundial.
Una obra que nos hace partícipe de las pequeñas escaramuzas que tenían la intención de conseguir la victoria de uno u otro bando. Un audiolibro necesario para rescatar la memoria de estos héroes caídos en el olvido que se ofrecieron voluntarios en misiones suicidas para ayudar a su patria.
Please note: This audiobook is in Latin American Spanish.

Ningún episodio en la historia del mundo ha sido tan estudiado como la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Todo lo que se debe saber sobre la Segunda Guerra Mundial es presentado de una forma novedosa como el capítulo más trascendental del S. XX cuya memoria continúa plenamente vigente más de setenta años después. El autor nos presentará fielmente las espectaculares batallas de Stalingrado, la batalla de Midway, la derrota del astuto Rommel en El Alamein, y el espectacular duelo aéreo de la Luftwaffe contra la RAF en la Batalla de Inglaterra.

In 1992, the deadliest year in Chicago’s history, seven-year-old Dantrell Davis was shot and killed in front of his elementary school inside the public housing complex Cabrini-Green. What happened to Dantrell led to a truce among Chicago’s gangs, but it also ignited a national panic about poverty and violence in America’s cities. Dantrell’s name would soon be used to demolish all of Chicago’s high-rise public housing, displacing tens of thousands of low-income families.

Story
The history of the tablets translated in the following book is strange and beyond the belief of modern scientists. Their antiquity is stupendous, dating back some 36,000 years. The writer is Thoth, an Atlantean Priest-King, who founded a colony in ancient Egypt after the sinking of the mother country. He was the builder of the Great Pyramid of Giza, erroneously attributed to Cheops. In it he incorporated his knowledge of the ancient wisdom and also securely secreted records and instruments of ancient Atlantis.

Christmas is the single biggest annual event on the planet, a time for merry-making, over-indulgence, peace, goodwill, and the occasional family row. It’s as comfortable and familiar as a pair of old shoes and yet still glittery and exciting. But what do you really know about it? It’s stuffed full of traditions and rituals that most of us have been observing all our lives without having the slightest idea of where they come from.
