Customer Reviews

Read it, if you can find it!

Any of Gliberty's Calder and Behrens short stories are worth reading if you can find them nowadays! They are GREAT!!!!!!

Excellent example of british spy genre

This particular book is a series of short stories about a two man British espionage team around WWII. It is a wonderful introduction to Mr. Gilbert's very British and very dry style of writing while also being very exciting. The last story in the series, which involves a deerhound, is one of the best. If you can find a copy of this book, buy it
