Secret Agent`s Handbook - The Top Secret Manual of Wartime Weapons, Gadgets, Disguises and Devices
For anyone fascinated by James Bond's guns and gadgets, this book is the real thing. The 'Descriptive Catalogue of Special Devices and Supplies' was a top secret manual drawn up by Britain's Special Operations Executive: the secret sabotage organisation set up early in the Second World War to 'set Europe ablaze'. Classified for 50 years, the Catalogue illustrates the remarkable range of weapons, devices and disguises developed for use by SOE agents on real-life secret missions - from exploding Chianti bottles to silenced pistols, shoes that left barefoot prints and even an exploding rate. This is a real complete facsimile of the original Catalogue in all its extraordinary detail.
