Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. First Edition. Hardcover with DJ, First Edition, Brassey's Inc. Washington, D.C. 257 pages. Fine, in a NF DJ. Dark brown cloth boards (looks like leather grained) with gilt spine titles - corners sharp. Just a hint of shelf/edge wear to DJ - now in mylar. Only flaw is some minor fading to the spine of the DJ. No previous owner markings - all pages are clean and unmarked. Fascinating study of how British intelligence pushed America into WW II. Freelance writer Mahl has convincingly drawn on a variety of sources--including recently declassified FBI and government files, memoirs, personal papers, and little-known official reports--to weave together a portrait of extraordinary schemes and activities, many of which were highly illegal at the time. The foreign money trail is fascinating. OCLC#-36858315. A superb First Edition in DJ.ISBN-1574880802.LOC SSE-07. Seller Inventory # 250726007
