Newsletter of the International Intelligence History Study
Group
"This extraordinary book throws light on many intelligence aspects
of the Cold War. The author has provided a thorough account of the
NIS and struck the right balance between technical detail and
readability ... For scholars of modern history it is a "must" read
... Hopefully the publication sets a standard to be quickly
followed by other authors and researchers."
Cryptologia, Vol 24, No 3, July 2000
"This book is unique because it is the first time that a Western
intelligence service has opened its most secret archives from the
Cold War period to an independent historian."
Defense Analysis
"This is a unique study on modern intelligence"
International History Review
"a path-breaking work in the feild of intelligence studies...the
book is the outcome of meticulous, scholarly research of the kind
so often absent in the field"
Intelligence and National Security
"the first history of a western intelligence service written on the
basis of unlimited access to the relevant official
archives...despite the technical complexities of the subject,
remains full of incident and consistently readable...sets a
standard which subsequent intelligence histories will do well to
emulate
