Some toning/spotting, jacket worn to extremities, some rubbing. Very good. With a foreword by Sir Robert Laycock, Chief of Combined Operations and father-in-law of Lucy Fleming. Fascinating account of the wartime exploits of Otto Skorzeny (1908-1975), Germany's Commander of the Waffen SS Special Forces Unit who lead several covert operations for the Axis powers, including the rescue of Mussolini after his arrest on the order of the Italian King in 1943. He also led Operation Greif in which German soldiers infiltrated Allied lines wearing US Army uniforms. As a result, he was charged in 1947 at the Dachau Military Tribunal with breaching the 1907 Hague Convention. He escaped from an internment camp in 1948, hiding out on a Bavarian farm, then in Salzburg and Paris before eventually settling in Spain. In 1953, he served as a military advisor to the Egyptian president Nasser and was allegedly an advisor to Argentinian president Juan Perón. He later acted as an agent of Mossad, allegedly assisting with the execution of actions such as Operation Diamond. This copy is from the comprehensive espionage collection assembled by Jon Gilbert, with pencil ownership.
