Including eminent scientists, were interned or deported to Canada and Australia (if their ships were not torpedoed en route by U-boats) alongside Nazi PoWs and Italian fascists (very few of them) while detaining Mosley and followers under Defence Regulation 18B.

Hardcover. Etat : New. Etat de la jaquette : As New. 1st Edition. This copy is in new, unmarked condition bound in green cloth covered boards with bright gilt titling to a black panel on the spine. This copy is bright, tight, white and square. There is an embossed library stamp of a previous owner to the half title. The unclipped dust wrapper has some minimal edge wear to the head of the spine but still in as new condition. International postal rates are calculated on a book weighing 1 Kilo, in cases where the book weighs more than 1 Kilo increased postal rates will be quoted, where the book weighs less then postage will be reduced accordingly. This volume and its companions cannot fail to be of exceptional interest in their contribution to the definitive history of the Second World War. All the volumes are bound to stimulate controversy. Doubtless other judgements will be proposed in the independent histories which will follow when most of the archives on which they are based are transferred to the Public Record Office, as they eventually will be. Meanwhile this Official history will be the standard authority on this fascinating subject for many years to come. I am selling all five volumes in this series on this site. Ref ZZ 3.

DJ has slight wear and soiling. Some underlining noted. Signed and dated by Jeffrey Richelson on fep!!! Sir Francis Harry Hinsley OBE (26 November 1918 - 16 February 1998) was a historian and cryptanalyst. He worked at Bletchley Park during the WWII and wrote widely on the history of international relations and British Intelligence during the WWII. Hinsley helped initiate a programme of seizing Enigma machines and keys from German weather ships, such as the Lauenburg, thereby facilitating Bletchley Park's resumption of breaking of German Naval Enigma. Hinsley produced, with others, the multi-volume official history British Intelligence in the Second World War, and argued that Enigma decryption speeded Allied victory by 1-4 years while not altering the war's outcome. This volume reviews the arguments about security policy regarding enemy aliens, Fascists and Communists in the winter of 1939-40 and during the Fifth Column panic in the summer of 1940. It describes how the security system, still at the time inadequately organized and poorly informed, was developed into an efficient machine and how, with invaluable help from signals intelligence and other sources and by the skillful use of double cross agents, the operations of the enemy intelligence services were effectively countered. In conclusion it notes the consistent subservience of the Communist Party to the interests of the USSR and the likely threat to British security. N° de réf. du vendeur 76774
