"My Sister and I" by Dirk van der Heide (1941), the story of the German bombing of Rotterdam ostensibly written by an 11-year-old refugee to England and thence to the United States. "My Sister and I" enjoyed considerable commercial and critical success, but in the 1980s was discovered to have been a literary fabrication conducted by Harcourt, under Morley's supervision, to encourage American participation in World War II, possibly with guidance or encouragement from British intelligence services. During the war, Morley also served on the National War Labor Board. Following the war, Morley returned to England to become Director of the publisher Eyre &amp; Spottiswoode from which he ultimately retired.
