Review

"James Bond is a highly romanticized version of a true spy. The real thing is William Stephenson." --Ian Fleming, bestselling author of the James Bond novels "An adventure story of monumental proportions." --NBC News "A splendid book. Rich in information. . . . profound in its implications." --San Francisco Chronicle "An intriguing story of secret actions against the backdrop of great events." --Washington Post "As long as Americans value courage and freedom there will be a special place in our hearts, our minds, and our history books for the 'Man Called Intrepid.'" --Ronald Reagan
