THE SECRET WAR - Max Hastings












An over view of all the intelligence services on all sides during the war. From the folk on the ground to the back room boys and girls.

Many plans were complete disasters, there are spies and dolts but the underlying theme is the courage displayed by so many when they knew they were going to their deaths.

From code breaking geniuses to husbands and wives all uniting for a common cause on all sides.

A fascinating read like all Hastings work.  A good basis for further reading on particular topics or individuals.

THE SECRET LIFE OF J.EDGAR HOOVER - Anthony Summers

  A man who abused his position like no other public servant in history.  A vile little man.
