...history, and in the fourth he is still one of the most adroit and likable quick-change artists in the profession. He can beard Basil Zaharoff with tips from The Beyond, josh Hermann Goring, rip off a bit of Beethoven for "Adi" Schicklgruber, rescue a beautiful Social Democrat from "Naziland" and an intrepid young Briton from the Spanish Fascists. He can carom all over "this old continent" (Europe) in his high-powered roadster, keeping dates with the major crises of his time, without for a moment losing the reader's interest and sympathy...

There is no clothing for children, no fuel for winter. The death rate from starvation is at least 500 a day. But it took the Germans and Italians a full week to break a general strike in Athens.

Airports, munition dumps and-most ominous-concentrations of barges along the Lowland and French coasts, were targets attacked even in foul weather.* At all costs Britain must interrupt Germany's preparations, play for time. The Royal Navy's success in scotching France's sea power before the Axis could get it was a national bracer. For even if she stood off Blitzkrieg, Britain already faced Blockade. With...
