Hardbound. Etat : Good. Reprint Edition. Description: Originally published in 1950, this reprint edition is part of the Time-Life World War II Classics series, The Secret War. Photo frontis plus twenty one additional black and white photo illustrations and two maps. In the spring of 1944, with D-Day looming, British intelligence in Cairo stepped up its activities around the Mediterranean basin, parachuting agents into German occupied areas and generally proving to Hitler that his vaunted Fortress Europe was vulnerable south as well as north. This book recounts what was arguably the most improbable and absurdly dangerous of all these British ventures, the kidnapping of the German general commanding the occupation forces on Crete. It is an extraordinary tale, not least for the manner of the telling. Moss kept a diary that forms the bulk of this book, coolly penning entries even while he and his fellow kidnappers were scrambling about the island, dodging German patrols, so the narrative has the vividness of things seen and felt minute by minute. This copy includes the publisher's insert. BINDING/CONDITION: from a uniformly bound series: tan marbled boards with half black imitation leather (corners and spine), all edges gilt, ribbon place marker, a round stain on the rear boards (about the size of a quarter), otherwise in Very Good condition. glossary. Printed endpapers. 8vo (8.5 inches tall). 192 pages. N° de réf. du vendeur 067356
