Coins émoussés et coiffes abimées. Ferdinand Tuohy, officier de renseignement britannique actif durant la Première Guerre mondiale, relate dans cet ouvrage les opérations clandestines menées entre 1914 et 1918, en s'appuyant sur ses expériences directes dans le domaine de l'espionnage. Traduit en français par Maurice Dekoba, le texte explore les méthodes d'infiltration, de contre-espionnage et de renseignement militaire qui ont marqué ce conflit, reflétant le contexte d'une guerre totale où l'information devint une arme stratégique décisive. Il offre un témoignage factuel sur les réseaux secrets alliés et ennemis, soulignant la tension entre ruse et loyauté dans une Europe dévastée par la mobilisation générale. Cette perspective d'un acteur de terrain éclaire les fondements modernes des services de renseignement. Papier bruni, quelques rousseurs sans gravité et cahiers mal-reliés.
