History of the Second World War: British Intelligence in the Second World War #4

by F.H. Hinsley

British Intelligence in the Second World War provides the only reliable account yet published--or ever likely to be published--of the part played by British intelligence in allied strategy and operations in the Second World War. No such account could have been written without the unrestricted access which was afforded to Professor Hinsley and his colleagues to the full range of British government intelligence records and to political and military archives of the war and before.
