The ministry of ungentlemanly warfare : Churchill's mavericks : plotting Hitler's defeat
Milton, Giles2016
Books
In the spring of 1939, a top secret organisation was founded in London: its purpose was to plot the destruction of Hitler's war machine through spectacular acts of sabotage. These six 'ministers', aided by a group of formidable ladies, were so effective that they single-handedly changed the course of the war. Told with Giles Milton's trademark verve and eye for detail, 'The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare' is thoroughly researched and based on hitherto unknown archival material.
