8vo., First Edition; handsomely bound in full burgundy crushed morocco, sides with gilt frame border, back with raised bands, second and fourth compartments ruled and lettered in gilt, all other compartments tooled in gilt, gilt top, hand-made endpapers, red ribbon marker, a most attractive copy ideal as a gift or for presentation.
Complementing 'Specially Employed' (1952), this is an elegant copy of the second and final account by the wartime head of SOE's French Section. As in the case of its counterpart, content was subject to the rigorous restrictions of the period. VERY SCARCE. Enser, p.410 (recording the first edition).
