This account of the life of war hero Jacques Vaillant de Gu???lis follows him from his birth in Cardiff through school and University and on into French Military Service. In 1939, the newly married de Gu???lis was assigned to a company of British engineers as liaison officer. He escaped the German assault via Dunkirk, only to return to France a few days later. After months of fighting and travel, and even a stint in the Miranda del Orbo concentration camp, de Gu???lis eventually found his way back in England, where he was recruited by the fledgling Special Operations Executive, after an interview with Churchill. While in the SOE he would play a pivotal role for the rest of the war as a recruiting officer and saboteur. Full of fascinating turns and narrow scrapes, this true account of wartime espionage and intrigue as seen through the lens of one man's extraordinary service is sure to appeal to those with interest in military history, espionage, and World War II.
