THE MAN WHO WOULDN’T TALK
During World War Two, George Dupre worked
for Canadian Intelligence. For much of the war,
he worked in an office in Winnipeg, Canada,
although he was sent to Britain later in the
conflict.
When he returned to Canada after the war,
people were naturally interested in hearing
about what he had done. George was a good
storyteller and he slowly started to exaggerate
his role in the war. His stories became more
and more sensational. He told his fascinated
listeners about how he was sent to France to
work undercover. He had pretended to be
a village idiot, which disguised his real purpose
there. Eventually, he had been arrested by the
Germans, who had recognised his importance
to the war effort. They had tortured him for
information but George was strong and brave.
He had refused to tell them anything. He was
the man who wouldn’t talk.
Test
Name: ______________________________________ Class: ____
Once George started, he had to keep up the lie,
no matter how far-fetched the story became. It
proved to be quite simple to keep up the
deception. George was quiet and modest and
very believable. When he was vague about
details or contradicted himself, it was easy to
blame it on his suffering while a prisoner.
News of George’s heroism quickly spread.
A writer, called Quentin Reynolds, had the idea
of writing a book about George. He
interviewed him and, in 1953, George’s story
appeared with the title The Man Who Wouldn’t
Talk. Perhaps, it should have been called The
Man Who Talked Too Much. The book caught
the attention of one of his wartime colleagues
who realised that George had been in
Winnipeg at the time many of the book’s
events took place. He told a journalist what he
knew and the journalist had an idea.
He arranged to meet George, claiming that he
too had worked for Canadian intelligence in
Europe. He then tricked George by making up
some names of important intelligence agents
working in France at that time. George was
completely taken in and claimed he had known
the same people.
When the story broke, the book’s publishers
were forced to republish the story as a work of
fiction. Quentin Reynolds joked that he had
written his first novel. However, surprisingly,
sales didn’t suffer. It was such a good story
that people still enjoyed it, even though they
knew it wasn’t true. It also helped that George
hadn’t invented the story for personal or
financial gain.

He gave away any money he earned from the
book, even before the truth was revealed. He
was just a normal person who had got carried
away. As he said himself, the story just grew
on him.
George Dupre spent most of World War Two in an
office in Winnipeg, Canada. Whilst he was, in
fact, sent to Britain for some time, he didn't do
most of the things he claimed. Having come back
to Canada, people started asking him questions.
He was good at telling stories and told them he

As a result, some German soldiers captured and
tortured him to find out what he knew, but he
remained strong and refused to cooperate with
them.
A writer called Quentin Reynolds met and
interviewed George to (2) ___________________
___________________________________ him.
One of his colleagues read it and realised it
wasn't all true. After he revealed the truth, George
was tricked into admitting that he (3) __________
______________________________ most of the
story.
Since the book didn't describe real events, it was
later (4) ______________________________,
but it was still very popular. People enjoyed
reading it and they liked George, who had
decided to give away all the money he earned
from the book even before the truth was
discovered.
