Description

Launches a new series of Historical Dictionaries of Intelligence and Counter-Intelligence that examines the shadowy world of spies - providing the most detailed, comprehensive, and accurate information available on a topic that has proved notoriously difficult to research. Offers insight into the history and operations of British Intelligence through its more than 1,800 entries, covering a vast and varied cast of characters, the spies and their handlers, the moles and defectors, the show more political leaders, the top brass, the techniques and jargon, and the many different offices and operations. Features 16 black-and-white photographs, an extensive chronology, and a comprehensive bibliography. show less
