About This Item
Trade paperback edition, published by Frontline Skyhorse Publishing, 2009. Large format trade paperback, printed in the United Kingdom, 5-1/2" X 8-1/2", illustrated with numerous photos throughout. Introduction by Nigel Jones. This is not a remainder, not a library copy. No creases to the cover or spine. Former owner's name/address is rubber stamped on the top right corner of the title page, no further writing besides that. Foxing spots on the edges of the text block. This is the gripping true story of Best's experience as a British MI6 officer, the trap set by the Nazi's at Venlo, his capture by the Gestapo, and his torture and imprisonment for more than five years. The attached photo is of the copy we have in our inventory, not a stock photo.
