The book also delves into the political and strategic considerations that underpinned the SOE's operations, including the tensions between the British and American intelligence agencies and the challenges of coordinating with Resistance groups. Landau provides insight into the personalities and motivations of the agents and leaders involved in these operations, as well as the risks and sacrifices they faced.All's Fair is a gripping and informative account of the daring and dangerous work of the British Secret Service during World War II, and sheds light on the complex and often murky world of intelligence and espionage.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
