Behind the Lines by Russell Miller
Prepared for any situation from averting interrogation through suicide to derailing a train with nothing but an overcoat--and supplied with such useful items as expertly forged documents, exploding rats, and invisible ink--the men and women of the O.S.S. and the S.O.E. were sent behind enemy lines to cause mayhem, often alone, with an average life expectancy of six weeks. These are their stories in their own words.Russell Miller is a prize-winning journalist who has written eleven books. He was born in 1938 in east London and began his journalism career at the age of sixteen. He received four press awards and was named Writer of the Year by the Society of British Magazine Editors while working for the Sunday Times Magazine. His book Magnum, about the famed photo agency, was hailed as the best photo-journalism book I've ever read by John Simpson, and his oral histories of D-Day, Nothing Less Than Triumph, and SOE, Behind the Lines were extensively praised in the UK and the US.
