The legendary battles of World War II have been well-documented, but America’s behind-the-scenes economic warfare against Nazi Germany remains a lesser-known triumph.

Graham goes Inside the ICE house to discuss U.S. covert operations during a period of declared neutrality, internal conflicts among the Allies over a new world currency, and the crucial role of an unknown player, Ansel Luxford, in dismantling the German War Machine.
