Handbook for Spies (WWII Classic)

I am familiar with the book and have always thought how complicated theencryption process was which, without the aid of machinery to speed it up,must have been very time-consumingThe last part of the book appears to be fudged and written in another hand. Depite that, theevents remain gripping and an excellent read, although the binding could be a tad better

Utterly fascinating

Excellent book

Written in a cumbersome manner and author takes forever to get to the point. I had to force myself to finish it. Don't waste your time. Any of the information given is found elsewhere in more interesting and better written books. I couldn't believe how much the author dawdles and spends time justifying himself. The only 2 pages that are worth a damn are the sketches of the soviet network in Switzerland (attached for your viewing) Pick up any of the books by Ben Macintyre and you'll walk away having learned something new and far more interesting.

One of the best books on spying vintage WW2. It was first published years ago but is still relevant. It is also another reason counter intelligece agencies focused on those who fought in Spain for the Republic.
