Mission Accomplished provides the first ever complete and authoritative account of Britain's secret war in Italy during the Second World War
David Stafford is the author of several books on intelligence history, including Britain and European Resistance, Churchill and Secret Service, Roosevelt and Churchill- Men of Secrets, Flight from Reality and Ten Days to D-Day. He was Professor of History at the University of Victoria in British Columbia, Executive Director of the Canadian Institute of International Affairs, Chairman of the Canadian Association for Security and Intelligence Studies, an Associate Member of St. Antony's College, Oxford, and Project Director at the Centre for the Study of the Two World Wars at the University of Edinburgh, where he is currently an Honorary Fellow.
I much admired David Stafford's previous book, Endgame 1945 and
Mission Accomplished, an official history commissioned by the
Cabinet Office, exhibits the same elements of a lucid, flowing
narrative combined with acute observations about the varied
personalities involved...The mission was something of which both
Britons and Italians can be rightly proud and Stafford does it full
justice.
