Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. This copy is in new, unmarked condition bound in green cloth covered boards with bright gilt titling to a black panel on the spine. This copy is bright, tight, white and square. There is an embossed library stamp of a previous owner to the half title. The unclipped dust wrapper has some minimal edge wear to the head of the spine but still in as new condition. International postal rates are calculated on a book weighing 1 Kilo, in cases where the book weighs more than 1 Kilo increased postal rates will be quoted, where the book weighs less then postage will be reduced accordingly. This volume and its companions cannot fail to be of exceptional interest in their contribution to the definitive history of the Second World War. All the volumes are bound to stimulate controversy. Doubtless other judgements will be proposed in the independent histories which will follow when most of the archives on which they are based are transferred to the Public Record Office, as they eventually will be. Meanwhile this Official history will be the standard authority on this fascinating subject for many years to come. I am selling all five volumes in this series on this site. Ref ZZ 3.

Sir Francis Harry Hinsley OBE (26 November 1918 - 16 February 1998) was a historian and cryptanalyst. He worked at Bletchley Park during the WWII and wrote widely on the history of international relations and British Intelligence during the WWII. Hinsley helped initiate a programme of seizing Enigma machines and keys from German weather ships, such as the Lauenburg, thereby facilitating Bletchley Park's resumption of breaking of German Naval Enigma. Hinsley produced, with others, the multi-volume official history British Intelligence in the Second World War, and argued that Enigma decryption speeded Allied victory by 1-4 years while not altering the war's outcome. This second part of Volume 3 assesses the intelligence that was available before and during the Normandy landings, the fighting on the Russian fronts and in Yugoslavia, the war in the Mediterranean, U-boat warfare, the war in the air and the V-weapons offensives. Volume 3 is above all else concerned with the influence exerted by intelligence on the decision making process. It illustrated in fascinating detail the several layers and directions of intelligence, from the wrestling of information from the enemy to the point where the distilled and evaluated information was presented to political leaders and military commanders. This Official History will be the standard authority on this fascinating subject for many years to come. Presumed First U.S. Edition, First printing.

Sir Francis Harry Hinsley OBE (26 November 1918 - 16 February 1998) was a historian and cryptanalyst. He worked at Bletchley Park during the WWII and wrote widely on the history of international relations and British Intelligence during the WWII.

Hinsley produced, with others, the multi-volume official history British Intelligence in the Second World War, and argued that Enigma decryption speeded Allied victory by 1-4 years while not altering the war's outcome. This volume reviews the arguments about security policy regarding enemy aliens, Fascists and Communists in the winter of 1939-40 and during the Fifth Column panic in the summer of 1940. It describes how the security system, still at the time inadequately organized and poorly informed, was developed into an efficient machine and how, with invaluable help from signals intelligence and other sources and by the skillful use of double cross agents, the operations of the enemy intelligence services were effectively countered. In conclusion it notes the consistent subservience of the Communist Party to the interests of the USSR and the likely threat to British security.

London and New York: Her Majesty's Stationery Office and Cambridge University Press, 1979, 1981, 1984, 1988, . "British Intelligence in the Second World War provides the only reliable account yet published - or ever likely to be published - of the part played by British Intelligence in allied strategy and operations in the Second World War." This is a massive, authoritative gathering of information. These first three volumes of the series described the intelligence channels that gave the Allies their incomparable insight into enemy capabilities and intentions. Two more volumes covering security within the UK and Nazi activities, were published in 1990. Because publication dates were spread over a decade, these first three volumes (the third volume is in two parts) are hardly ever found together, with only individual volumes being listed on the internet in the $50-$100 range. All first editions, all very good - fine condition in very good dust jackets. 24.5 cm. xiii, 601; xvi, 850; xv, 698; xvi, 1038 pp. folding b/w and color maps, tables and plans. Postage at cost on this multi-volume set.
