About This Item
London: Blink Publishing, 2022. Paperback trade, very good condition, black & white & few sepia (brown-tinted) & colour photos, minor edgewear. 402 pp. Richard Kerbaj provides a fascinating history of the Five Eyes which is the international intelligence collaboration network between the UK, USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Until 2010, its existence remained a closely kept secret. The author expertly blends together accounts spanning the eight decades since the allianceâs inception. This is also a story with a remarkable cast of characters, like the Nazi spy who posed as a Scottish hairdresser, the American home economics teacher who helped create a program to counter Soviet espionage, and the CIA's lone officer in Budapest during the 1956 Hungarian Revolution. The book has been researched over many years, including interviews with world leaders and more than 100 current and former intelligence officers. It is a major contribution to the literature of international intelligence.
