Illustrated by
Gary Cherrington.
A rare Jewish Major League player, Moe Berg took a hiatus from baseball to work as a spy for the OSS during World War II, parachuting into Yugoslavia, reporting on the Nazi’s progress toward developing the atom bomb, and more. The interesting biography is illustrated with emotive cartoons. No sourcing is provided, but an afterword (with a couple of photos) expands on Berg's interesting life story.
