Reviews

Neutral Countries as Clandestine Battlegrounds, 1939-1968: Between Two Fires is intelligence history at its best. Combining scholarly rigor with vivid story-telling, this collection provides new insights into the intelligence-gathering, sabotage, and other activities of the belligerents during and after the Second World War. It also casts light on the measures taken by neutral states to preserve their freedom of action-often with surprising success. -- Patrick Salmon, chief historian at the United Kingdom Foreign and Commonwealth Office
