goudsward's review

The Encyclopedia of TV Spies is by Dr. Wesley Britton, one of the foremost authorities on spies found in TV and film.

This is a great resource and should be on the shelf of every espionage fan - with references from every spy show from Adam Adamant Lives! to Young Rebels, with insightful looks at shows that really aren't remembered as "spy shows," such as Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, or The Adventures of Zorro. Comedies and satires are included in the scope of the study, and frankly, where else are you going to find Lancelot Link, Secret Squirrel and Maxwell Smart in the same pages as James Bond, Napoleon Solo and Jack Bauer?

Check this one out!
