The remarkable story of Fred Mayer, a German-born Jew who escaped Nazi Germany only to return as an American commando on a secret mission behind enemy lines

Growing up in Germany, Freddy Mayer witnessed the Nazis' rise to power. When he was sixteen, his family made the decision to flee to the United States--they were among the last German Jews to escape, in 1938.

In America, Freddy tried enlisting the day after Pearl Harbor, only to be rejected as an "enemy alien" because he was German. He was soon recruited to the OSS, the country's first spy outfit before the CIA. Freddy, joined by Dutch Jewish refugee Hans Wynberg and Nazi defector Franz Weber, parachuted into Austria as the leader of Operation Greenup, meant to deter Hitler's last stand. He posed as a Nazi officer and a French POW for months, dispatching reports to the OSS via Hans, holed up with a radio in a nearby attic. The reports contained a gold mine of information, provided key intelligence about the Battle of the Bulge, and allowed the Allies to bomb twenty Nazi trains. On the verge of the Allied victory, Freddy was captured by the Gestapo and tortured and waterboarded for days. Remarkably, he persuaded the region's Nazi commander to surrender, completing one of the most successful OSS missions of the war.

Based on years of research and interviews with Mayer himself, whom the author was able to meet only months before his death at the age of ninety-four, Return to the Reich is an eye-opening, unforgettable narrative of World War II heroism.

Great disposable shower liner
Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1), Color: 1a. Clear
Didn't expect much from a shower liner, but this one delivered. The clear PEVA material looks clean and modern, and there's none of that gross chemical smell you get with cheap PVC liners. The three bottom magnets are a game-changer — no more liner blowing into you mid-shower. Rustproof grommets mean no rust stains either. Maintenance is a breeze: quick rinse, dries fast, done. Great value for what you get. Would recommend.

Exactly what they say it is.
Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1), Color: 1b. Clear-heavy
Appears to work exactly as advertised, and quality is very satisfactory, which is always a pleasant surprise on Amazon. Magnets are strong enough, plastic feels pliable and durable. Don't forget the rings aren't included.

Too lightweight and flimsy, but it does the job
Size: 72"W x 72"L (Pack of 1), Color: 1a. Clear
This shower liner works as expected, but it is a bit lightweight, and will drift around in the shower. I will look at getting a more heavy duty one in the future. This one has the 3 magnets, and that isn't enough. I would recommend getting one with double the magnets and a thicker plastic. I went cheap and regret it slightly, but at least these things are made to be disposable. Other than that, the durability seems good, and it looks and feels like you would expect, but as stated, the plastic is flimsy and flutters around. Seems fairly mold resistant vs other liners I've used from the store (like cheaper Walmart ones etc).

The ultimate water bottle
Color: Iced Breeze, Size: 24 Ounces
I can’t believe I’m so excited about a water bottle. The design is amazing - I love that there’s no straw poking up but there’s still a straw sip function. I like that the carrying hook doubles as a lid locking mechanism. This bottle feels very sturdy but it’s sleek and easy to grab - I have small hands and it isn’t a problem for me to drink from with one hand. It’s also really nice that this bottle fits in standard couple holders both at the gym in the machines and in my car. The color selection is so fun and I am pleased that my bottle looks exactly as pictured. My water has stayed cold and my ice cubes frozen for over 12 hours now. Cannot recommend enough!
