Routledge UK 2009. Trade Paperback. Near Fine. 404 pages. Covers have no creasing. Edges of covers have superficial wear. Spine is uncreased. Pages are clean and unmarked and in excellent condition. The mysterious life and career of Desmond Morton Intelligence officer and personal adviser to Winston Churchill during the Second World War is exposed for the first time in this study based on full access to official records. After distinguished service as artillery officer and aide-de-camp to General Haig during the First World War Morton worked for the Secret Intelligence Service from 1919-1934 and the fortunes of SIS in the interwar years are described here in unprecedented detail. As Director of the Industrial Intelligence Centre in the 1930s Morton's warnings of Germany's military and industrial preparations for war were widely read in Whitehall though they failed to accelerate British rearmament as much as Morton - and Churchill - considered imperative. Morton had met Churchill on the Western Front in 1916 and supported him throughout the 'wilderness years' moving to Downing Street as the Prime Minister's Intelligence adviser in May 1940. There he remained in a liaison role with the Intelligence Agencies and with Allied resistance authorities until the end of the war when he became a 'troubleshooter' for the Treasury in a series of tricky international assignments.Throughout Morton's career myth rumour and deliberate obfuscation have created a misleading picture of his role and influence. This book shines a light into many hitherto shadowy corners of British history in the first half of the twentieth century. This book will be of great interest to scholars and informed lay readers with an interest in the Second World War intelligence studies and the life of Winston Churchill. Quantity Available: 1.

But behind the public image of 'The Lady With the Lamp' was a brilliant combative complicated woman struggling to escape a web of social prejudice and familial expectations. From girlhood Florence wanted to dedicate her life to nursing in public hospitals even though nursing was then work done only by women of the lowest classes. Florence's family were determined to stop her. Eventually Florence had her way and her nursing mission took her to the filthy disease-ridden military hospitals of Scutari and Balaclava. Her work during the Crimean War made her an international heroine and thereafter she wielded an influence over public health policy that was unparalleled for a woman of the time. Radical in her ideas eccentric in her way of life Florence was often at war with her family but love and loyalty always triumphed in the end. The other Nightingales adored and criticised her understood and misread her supported and thwarted her defined and were defined by her. Gillian Gill's absorbing biography brings the dynamic and complicated social milieu of the Victorian age dramatically to life. Fascinating new light is shed not just on one of the era's most influential social figures but on the entire era through which the young Florence and her family lived. Quantity Available: 1.
