Recenzii
'Extraordinarily useful, endlessly interesting ... Jeffery captured the adventurous, John Buchan side of SIS with as much zest as he revealed the successes and failures of its analysis of events'
'A magisterial account of the two wars in particular, viewed via the prism of secret intelligence. Winningly, it also entertains'
'Fascinating ... The book is full of examples of the ingenuity and courage shown by all ranks'
'Full of episode and personality, without ever succumbing to the swash and buckle that can dazzle those who get close to SIS'
