'More than just a "witness to history", Jack
Wheeler-Bennett was himself a gifted historian, illuminating his
work with personal knowledge of many of the
protagonists. Intrepid adventurer, skillful journalist,
intelligence agent, one of the best informed men on Germany, or
USA, and wonderful company, he walked with ease with presidents,
kings, queens (and even Kaiser Wilhelm II), charming all down to
club porters with his unaffected warmth. He was one of
the outstanding, though unsung, certainly unrepeatable Britons of
his age.'— Sir Alistair Horne
