Colombian platium, with its high-percentage of iridium was the most sought after metal in the German war effort. Allied powers created the Bureau of Economic Warfare (BEW) to thwart the Axis. This book is not about any one man or one agency, but the combined efforts to interdict the flow of platinum from Colombia.
