The Tizard Mission was one of the key events in the forging of the Anglo-American alliance in World War II. Led by Sir Henry Tizard, the mission visited the United States and Canada in the summer of 1940 to make available virtually all of Britain's technical and scientific military secrets. Overwhelmed by British generosity, the U.S. reciprocated. David Zimmerman tells the story of that mission and examines the importance of technology in modern war and its crucial role in the defeat of the Axis powers.
