A peacetime solicitor, Major ROBERT BOURNE-PATERSON became one of the Special Operation Executives planning officers in F Section. His service in this organisation led to his involvement with some of its most famous operatives individuals such as Violet Szarbo GC, whose will he was a witness to. He is described as being SOEs first historian.
"A full account of SOE operations is unlikely ever to be written
because some events were never documented and documents were lost
or destroyed at the end of the war. This book is likely to be the
best and most comprehensive account possible, being based on the
previously unpublished report by a staff officer and former SOE
member at the end of the war. Highly Recommended."-- "FIRE
Reviews"
"Operations of the SOE in France, written by someone who was there
and who was personally involved. Extraordinary stories of courage
and determination."-- "Books Monthly"
