Red Runs the Vistula (Signed First Edition)
Description
Red Runs the Vistula by Ron Jeffery. (Signed by the author). ''Ron Jeffery, worked as a secret service agent under the noses of the Gestapo in Europe during World War II. As an English soldier in France he was captured by the Germans in 1940, but he escaped twice and eventually found his way into the Polish underground. Using his flair for foreign languages, particularly German, he undertook espionage missions in Austria, Germany and Czechoslovakia that were deemed of considerable value to the Allied war effort.His efforts were at first highly regarded but subsequently studiously ignored by the British, which a disillusioned Jeffery attributed to the treachery of Kim Philby and other high-ranking communist agents entrenched in the British system.' The dust jacket has medium general wear with curling along the top and bottom edges and some small tape repairs. The book remains tight and bright.
