Description

8vo., First Edition, with frontispiece, 17 plates on 14, and 2 illustrations (one full-page) and full-page map in the text; handsomely bound in full dark green crushed morocco, sides with gilt frame border, gilt back, gilt top, hand-made endpapers, ribbon marker, a most attractive copy ideal as a gift or for presentation. One of the earliest separate publications on the activities of Special Operations Executive by the Head of French Section. 'I do not claim that the incidents described in these pages are completely factually accurate' (Preface). 'Quite so' responds Foot, although he is also the first to recognise the restrictions placed upon the author at the time. Enser, p.410; Foot, p.455.
