Secret Agents by Adrian Gilbert

The enduring appeal of spies and their technology, codes and mysterious ways are explored in this engaging series of four colorful books. Each explores a different aspect of the spy trade, interspersing historical tidbits with tales of spies from popular culture and contemporary movies. Other titles in this series include: Codes and Ciphers, Spy School, and Top Technology.

John Le Carre, Sir Francis Walsingham, Mata Hari, Moe Berg, J. Edgar Hoover, Ian Fleming and Stella Rimington, along with several of the most high-profile spy exchanges, captures and escapes are covered in Secret Agents.

Voices of the French Foreign Legion and POW: Allied Prisoners in Europe, 1939-1945, both written by Adrian Gilbert, have been chosen among the top 10 military books of the year by The Sunday Times. He has written for a variety of periodicals, including The Sunday Times, Guardian, Good Book Guide, and Gramophone, and has contributed to TV programs. The author is based in Cheshire, England.
