This book was extremely difficult to read. The author is obviously not a writer. I make it a practice to complete every book I start. Doing so in this case, however, was truly a challenge. Although the book is about Ms. Atkins, it seems to be as much about the scores of people she became involved with in her espionage work. What makes the book so difficult to read is the author's writing style, which is basically just a hodgepodge of miscellaneous anecdotes about events and people which often seem totally unconnected to the paragraph before or the paragraph that follows. You often wonder why he even mentions them at all, and you often feel lost. You read some paragraphs and have to wonder what he's saying, even after you've read it a second time. You get the impression that the writer, who obviously had tens of thousands of facts at his disposal about WWII British espionage, is trying to impress the reader with the breadth of his knowledge of the subject. In doing so, however, he seems to have put on paper whatever facts popped into his head at a given moment. The relevance of those facts often escapes the reader, who would need the writer's knowledge of the subject to follow what he is trying to say. Perhaps it is an intellectual deficiency on my part, but I suspect that the vast majority of people reading this book will find it unreadable. Ms. Atkins was a remarkable woman. Fortunately, there is another book about Ms. Atkins that I'm currently reading that is far more readable and enjoyable, and provides a much better portrait of this very complicated woman. The title is "A Life in Secrets - Vera Atkins and the Missing Agents of World War II."
It is not very often that I do not finish a book but this one is going to be one of the few. This sounds like an interesting book. But in reality it is so badly written, very disjointed and has no supporting documentation. I felt as if he wrote it in a hurry. I dread to think what the book on Entebbe is like as that was written in a week. I am not sure who the editor was but they should have been fired.This subject could have been such an exciting read but it is impossible to follow the story line. The author assumes we all know & understand what he's talking about. He has no real explanations about all the different departments, other than a long boring list which makes for hard reading and by the time you start the book you have forgotten what the initials stand for.The book portrays the English as a bunch of Hooray Henry's which I am sure there were some but not every man in the UK is a bumbling idiot. Nor were the English pro Hitler except for a select few aristocrats. It is true the English did not want to go back to war. Who would after the devastation of WWI. I have read 37% but I can go no further. I shall not read more of his books.
If you have a broad and deep knowledge of European politics, and various notable people from the WWI through WWII years, then you may find this book a fascinating weaving together of covert and known history during that time. I regret I am not that audience. I'm a neophyte in my knowledge of the era, having only a singular college history class along with a few documentaries and biographies of notable people who lived then as my knowledge base.I forced my way through about half this book, taking frequent pauses to google things mentioned quickly but not explained or elaborated upon. After 3 months, I have quit trying. Ironically, this book has been more effective for curing insomnia than it has been in educating or entertaining me. I had far more enjoyment and learning in the various articles and documentaries I've watched trying to learn enough to follow one chapter of this author's rambling and abstruse recounting of names, facts, and dates, than I've enjoyed a single page of this book. Wait, the opening part of the little boy on the bike delivering Vera a message did engage me. I purchased the book after reading it as a preview. I was disappointed that after the vingnette, we never heard about him again.Reluctantly I must agree with other reviewers who've said reading this is like listening to a six-year old give a chronological recounting of a long documentary; unless you have first hand knowledge, prepare yourself for a challenge. My question is where is the editor who should have helped the historian hone in on a narrative line within which to wrap all this information more effectively for the audience?
I agree with many of the other 1-star reviews about the writing, but wanted to add a couple of other specific criticisms. The problems with the text are not simply an issue of writing style, but rather there is a persistent absence of logical thought or any organization to the information presented, in addition to the choppy style and awkwardly constructed sentences. This lack of logical organization results in a lack of context for much of the information. His paragraphs start with one random thought and wander to other, disconnected thoughts from there. At a finer grain in the text, most sentences that contain any structure beyond simple subject-verb-object are themselves disjointed and hard to decipher: the antecedent of a personal pronoun is often two or three names earlier, not the nearest one, or there will be a run of pronouns with a convoluted order of antecedents. The publishers should be ashamed of themselves for the obvious lack of any serious editing of this book.I find the European part of WWII very interesting and this particular subject area particularly interesting; I assumed I could blast through any bad writing, but I simply can't figure out what his point is more than half the time. "Incoherent" is the summary word I would use for this extremely unsatisfactory text. Unlike some reviewers who feel they have to finish every book they start, I feel that life is much too short and I have too much I want to do and experience to waste time on writing such as in this book--I'm quitting at 16% (Kindle).
