Between Five Eyes by Anthony R Wells
A detailed look at UK-US intelligence through a personal lens based on workinguniquely for UK intelligence as a British citizen and US intelligence as a US citizen.
“[Wells’s] mix of a naval career, academic work, intelligence analyst and qualifying for the Bar is impressive! … This really is a must read for anyone interested in the vital role that intelligence plays in providing accurate intelligence to politicians and helping shape the 21st Century world – very highly recommended“ * Warships World *
An extraordinary book […] This really is a must-read for anyone interested in the vital role that intelligence plays in providing accurate intelligence to politicians and helping shape the 21st Century world - very highly recommended. * Navy Books/Warships World 14/06/2021 *
…an excellent summary of a 75 year history of intelligence sharing between the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand from World War II to present. * The Submarine Review *
It is clear from reading the book that Wells has a prolific mind and had a fascinating career. His position integrated into US intelligence had no predecessor nor a successor. As Between Five Eyes has largely a naval focus it will be of most interest to those interested in naval intelligence. But its breadth of topics is far greater. * Intelligencer *
This reviewer...highly recommends that every Active Duty/Reserve/Retired US Navy intelligence officer and senior intelligence specialist read this comprehensive history of the Five Eyes Community. * Naval Intelligence Professionals READBOOK *
Especially pertinent is the chapter on current and emerging terrorist and related threats and their impact on intelligence collection and analysis by the 'Five Eyes'. * Journal of Counterterrorism & Homeland Security International 12/04/2021 *
Between Five Eyes is an absolutely fascinating read for anyone interested in the intelligence community and wider world. * Love Reading *
Very highly recommended. * Warships International *
