NIGEL WEST is an intelligence expert and critically-acclaimed author. Such is his depth of knowledge in these fields that The Sunday Times noted that, 'His information is often so precise that many people believe he is the unofficial historian of the secret services. His books are peppered with deliberate clues to potential front-page stories.' In 1989 Nigel was voted 'The Experts' Expert' by The Observer.
First released in the UK in 1983, this handsome reprint is a welcome addition that once again provides easy access to West's detailed look at the origins of Britain's Secret Intelligence Service (SIS) known as MI6. -- The Journal of Strategic Security ...well-researched and easy to read... --Keith Rimmer, NZ Crown Mines
