Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In June 1943, SOE's Prosper resistance circuit in France led by Major Francis Suttill collapsed very suddenly. Was it deliberately betrayed by the British as part of a deception plan to make the Germans think an invasion was imminent? Was it betrayed by MI6 out of jealousy? Did Churchill meet Prosper and deliberately mislead him? These are some of the stories that have developed since the war as survivors and others struggled to explain the sudden collapse of this circuit, the biggest in France at the time. PROSPER by Major Suttill's son meticulously traces what actually happened. It provides one of the most detailed records of the organisation and work of a resistance circuit ever published. The story that emerges shows the enormous risks faced by those who resisted and what their bravery enabled them to achieve. AUTHOR: Francis J. Suttill wrote the Special Operations Executive's 'Prosper Disaster' of 1943 with Prof M.R.D. Foot, Intelligence, and National Security. He has interviewed contemporary witnesses and photographed the locations of the drama. The greatest French Resistance disaster of the Second World War told in its entirety for the first time.

Hardback. Condizione: As New. In the murky realms of literary ambition, "Shadows in the Fog" emerges with all the grace of a drunken ballerina attempting a pirouette on a foggy pier. Authored by the illustrious Francis J Suttill, who may or may not have mastered the art of writing while simultaneously balancing a teetering tower of history books, this tome is a delightful expedition into obscurity?perfect for those who enjoy a side of bewilderment with their reading. Published in 2014 by The History Press, which, to their credit, has a penchant for publishing books that leave one wondering if history was ever really as eventful as they claim. Within these pages, one is invited to contemplate the existential implications of shadows, fog, and perhaps even the sandwiches one packed for a picnic that never quite happened. The narrative is reputed to weave a tapestry of intrigue, historical musing, and the occasional moment of clarity, presented in a manner that feels like a jigsaw puzzle constructed by a cat with a penchant for chaos. Picture yourself trying to engage with a story that may or may not attempt to delve into the depths of human nature while simultaneously making you question your life choices regarding your reading list. The book?s cover, a tantalising display of mist and muted colours, hints at the enigmatic content within?but, alas, much like a fog itself, it is dense and often obscured. Will you find answers? Perhaps! Or perhaps you will be left to ponder the question: did you pick up a historical narrative or an elaborate riddle wrapped in metaphysical enigma? Either way, prepare for an intellectual rollercoaster that promises more twists and turns than a country road in the middle of nowhere. For those who enjoy learning about the past while being led through a maze of foggy prose, this book is a smorgasbord of tantalising subtitles and footnotes that may or may not relate to the content at hand. Readers have noted that the prose often feels like it is dressed in Victorian attire, attempting to impress at a tea party that has long since ended, leaving everyone but your imagination in a state of utter bewilderment. As you traverse the intricate layers of Suttill?s work, you may also find yourself asking whether the shadows in the fog are merely reflections of your inner thoughts or if they represent the author?s own ambivalence towards clarity and coherence. It?s a philosophical conundrum in paperback form?ideal for those who fancy themselves as part-time thinkers and full-time procrastinators. Condition: As New. This means it has been preserved in such a way that it appears as though it has just leapt off the shelves of an overly ambitious bookshop, waiting patiently for a reader bold enough to brave its depths. No creases, no signs of wear, and absolutely no evidence that it has ever seen a coffee stain?unless one counts the aura of existential dread that seems to cling to it like an unwanted fog on a summer?s day. So, if you are in search of an experience that blends the ephemeral nature of shadowy musings with the tangible thrill of second-hand literature, look no further. This book is practically begging for you to take it home, dust it off, and give it a chance to be the conversation starter at your next literary soirée?or at least an excellent source of confusion for your more pretentious friends. In conclusion, "Shadows in the Fog" is an enigmatic invitation to ponder, reflect, and possibly lose a few brain cells while doing so. Available exclusively at Crappy Old Books, this exquisite piece of bafflement is waiting patiently for someone like you to adopt it and unlock its secrets?or at least enjoy a good laugh over the sheer audacity of its title.…
