About This Item
(Subject: World War II - General) Inscribed by previous owner. This book describes how Britains most vital WWII wireless traffic was handled by a unit formed in 1938 by Brig. Richard Gambier-Parry, head of MI6 Sect. VIII - the communications division of SIS. It tells of the early days of Station X in south west London, and of a second station in a Surrey bungalow owned by C - Admiral Sir Hugh Sinclair, head of the Secret Intelligence Service. It describes the units work at Bletchley Park and Whaddon Hall and the activities of agents in the field, and contains an account by an Afrika Corps Enigma operator at Rommels headquarters. Tales of ULTRA traffic to commanders in the field complete this magnificent contribution to the history of wartime intelligence. (Published: 2003) (ISBN: 1843752522) (Pagination: Large Format, 416pp, 200 + photos.) (Condition: New in pictorial boards - inscribed by previous owner.) UL-XXXXXX
