About the Author
Born in London, Len Deighton served in the RAF before graduating from the Royal College of Art (which recently elected him a Senior Fellow). While in New York City working as a magazine illustrator he began writing his first novel, ‘The Ipcress File’, which was published in 1962. He is now the author of more than thirty books of fiction and non-fiction. At present living in Europe, he has, over the years, lived with his family in ten different countries from Austria to Portugal.
Review
‘What Mr Deighton did for the Battle of Britain in Fighter he had done for the land-war here .... A rattlingly good yarn’ Guardian
‘Deighton has a desire, unobtrusive but inflexible, to see the truth ... Blitzkrieg is full of insights, quietly expressed but as a rule uncomfortably true’ Financial Times
‘Contains some gems of research and some arresting conclusions’ New Statesman
