This is a 1996 re-issue of the book first published in 1939, thus mis-describing the Gestapo, as the 'German Secret Service'. It was actually The Geheime Staatspolizei (Secret State Police), abbreviated Gestapo, and was the official secret police of Nazi Germany and German-occupied Europe. The book however provides a contemporary account of the pre-WWII development of German intelligence operations, from the former secret police of Imperial Germany, which was re-organised under the Nazi regime to the ruthless organisation the Gestapo became under Himmler.
