"One of the most determined and courageous secret agents of the Second World War, Harry Peulevé joined the BEF in 1940 before volunteering for F Section of the Special Operations Executive. On his first mission to occupied France to set up the SCIENTIST circuit, he broke his leg on landing and, after numerous close calls, made an heroic crossing of the Pyrenees on sticks in December 1942. Imprisoned, he escaped and eventually returned to England in May 1943." There is light shelf wear to the edges of the unclipped dust jacket and slight bumping to the book spine. Light foxing to fore edge. Both book and dust jacket are otherwise in excellent condition. All contents are tight and clean. There are no inscriptions.
