Description

8vo., First Edition thus, page-edges lightly browned as often; burgundy cloth, gilt back, a remarkably bright, clean copy in unclipped dustwrapper, the latter with small hole at centre of backstrip. Complementing 'Specially Employed' (1952), this is the second and final account by the wartime head of SOE's French Section. As in the case of its counterpart, content was subject to the rigorous restrictions of the period. This issue was published a year after Odhams' first edition; the inevitable page-tanning aside, this is a remarkable copy. VERY SCARCE IN THIS CONDITION. Enser, p.410 (recording the first edition).
