All's Fair: The Story of the British Secret Service Behind the German Lines by Henry Landau is a non-fiction book that tells the story of the British Secret Service's activities during World War II. The book focuses on the work of the Special Operations Executive (SOE), which was responsible for carrying out sabotage and espionage operations in Nazi-occupied Europe. The author, Henry Landau, was a member of the SOE and served as a wireless operator in France. He draws on his personal experiences and extensive research to provide a detailed account of the SOE's activities, including their recruitment and training of agents, their methods of communication, and their interactions with the Resistance movements in occupied Europe. The book also delves into the political and strategic considerations that underpinned the SOE's operations, including the tensions between the British and American intelligence agencies and the challenges of coordinating with Resistance groups. Landau provides insight into the personalities and motivations of the agents and leaders involved in these operations, as well as the risks and sacrifices they faced.All's Fair is a gripping and informative account of the daring and dangerous work of the British Secret Service during World War II, and sheds light on the complex and often murky world of intelligence and espionage.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
