(Subject: Intelligence, Espionage, Reconnaissance & Electronic Warfare) Since the end of the Second World War many books have been published about the exploits of spies, many based on nothing more substantive than a fertile imagination and some very dubious historical records. Several of these have, however, gained wide circulation, and a few have even been endorsed by respectable historians. Nigel West examines nearly two dozen books, some written by hitherto respected academics, which have been accepted as genuine contributions to Britain's secret history. In reality each was deliberately constructed to deceive the public. The book is inscribed (probably by the author) "To the Guvnor....23v98".
