Synopsis
Reginald Jones was nothing less than a genius. And his appointment to the Intelligence Section of Britain's Air Ministry in 1939 led to some of the most astonishing scientific and technological breakthroughs of the Second World War. In "Most Secret War" he details how Britain stealthily stole the war from under the Germans' noses by outsmarting their intelligence at every turn. He tells of the 'battle of the beams'; detecting and defeating flying bombs; using chaff to confuse radar; and many other ingenious ideas and devices. Jones was the man with the plan to save Britain and his story makes for riveting reading.

Most Secret War: British Scientific Intelligence 1939-1945
Seller: Maynard & Bradley, Leicester, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1978. A generally very well-presented copy, seemingly barely read with page edges crisp, no notable creases or signs of wear and internally clean throughout. Covers are firm and secure with just some mild edge wear around the ends of the spine. Dust jacket is worn with some loss at the base of the spine, but has been sympathetically patched and repaired using conservation tape for a fairly presentable finish.
