Críticas:
Billy Moss was one of those daring adventurers, the like of which we no longer see. His first book, Ill Met by Moonlight, about the kidnapping of General Kreipe, became a celebrated film. This book, reissued after 52 years, tells of his further exploits in Crete, Macedonia and Siam the story of a man of initiative and great courage. --Hugo Vickers
One of the finest memoirs of behind-the-lines work during the Second World War. Honest, powerful and authentic. --Dr Roderick Bailey, historian and writer on SOE

A new edition of the sequel to the phenomenally successful Ill Met by Moonlight. Few escapades of the Second World War have captured the public s imagination more than the successful abduction of German General Kreipe from enemy-occupied Crete in 1944. It was an operation instigated and daringly executed by two British SOE officers Patrick Leigh Fermor and William (Billy) Stanley Moss. The war didn t stop for Billy Moss after this operation though, and it is his continuing story that is told here. He reflects movingly on what it means to fight and deal in death, how the success of operations behind enemy lines in a foreign country is dependent on the goodwill of local inhabitants, and, surprisingly, on moments of high humour that punctuate the turmoil of war. War of Shadows is a book in three parts each displaying differing aspects of World War II and its eventual conclusion, and all told with that tell-tale blend of poignancy and humour so characteristic of the time.

Descripción Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. A new edition of the sequel to the phenomenally successful Ill Met by Moonlight. Few other escapades of WW2 have captured the public's imagination more than the successful abduction of German General Kreipe from enemy occupied Crete in 1944. It was an operation instigated and daringly executed by two British SOE officers - Patrick Leigh Fermor and William (Billy) Stanley Moss. The war didn't stop for Billy Moss after the Kreipe operation though, and it is his continuing story that Billy recounts in War of Shadows. He reflects movingly about what it means to fight and deal in death, how the turmoil of operations behind enemy lines in a foreign country is dependent on the goodwill of local inhabitants, and, surprisingly, of moments of high humour. War of Shadows is a book in three parts - each displaying varied aspects of World War II and its eventual conclusion. Billy Moss, brother-in-arms to Patrick Leigh Fermor, gives his version of the final months of World War II in this reprint of the sequel to the phenomenally successful Ill Met by Moonlight (never out of print since 1950 and made into a 1957 film with Dirk Bogarde).
