CODENAME DORA: THE MEMOIRS OF A RUSSIAN SPY by Sandor Rado and Translator J. A. Underwood 'Dora' was the codename of the leader of a vitally important link in the Soviet intelligence network operating in Europe during the Second World War. Under cover of running a cartographical agency in Geneva, the author was able to build up a group which, at its best in 1942, had three transmitters providing Russia with information on German troop positions, movements and losses, the state of the armaments industry and strategic plans. This book provides a fascinating first-hand insight into the difficulties and dangers faced by intelligence agents, their dedication, and the day-to-day running of an extremely successful branch of the Soviet Union's 'Red Orchestra'.1977, Abelard & Schuman, , 0200723391,< R-03>,298pp, fair in discoloured d/w. probably ex-library, , Subject...Intelligence, Espionage, Reconnaissance & Electronic WarfareWeb No. 2459-01..............................£9.00 |
CHURCHILL'S WIZARDS: THE BRITISH GENIUS FOR DECEPTION 1914-1945 by Nicholas Rankin The story of how the British really won two world wars - British geniuses broke German secret codes and eavesdropped on their messages, captured German spies in Britain were used to send back false information to their controllers, and forged documents misled German Intelligence. To create a vital illusion of strength bogus wireless traffic from entire phantom armies, dummy airfields with balsa wood planes, disguised ships and inflatable rubber tanks were built. This spectacular misdirection was essential to the success of D-Day in 1944. 2008, Faber & Faber, , 9780571221950,< R-03>,466pp illustrations, very good in d/w, , Subject...Intelligence, Espionage, Reconnaissance & Electronic WarfareWeb No. 36560-01..............................£10.00 |
