"The Special Operations Executive, generally known as SOE, was one of the most remarkable creations of the Second World War. In July 1940, Winston Churchill instructed Hugh Dalton, Minister of Economic Warfare, to set Europe ablaze. Operating both as a cloak and dagger, SOE's task was to foment and support clandestine resistance wherever it could gain a foothold." (from Wikipedia). Very Good+ in Very Good+ dust jacket .
