Brilliant!

Mr. Melton writes a wonderful book that gives a whole new side to the World War II most people learn about. The book is in catalogue style, picturing and explaining the different tools used by the OSS and SOE (during WWII). This book gives assurance that the US government is able to do excellent work under pressure. It is an absolutely fascinating read that should not be missed!
