SOE GROUP B SABOTAGE TRAINING HANDBOOK

More about the book

Set against the backdrop of World War II, the narrative explores the establishment of a secret training school at Brickendonbury Manor, designated for British agents preparing for covert operations in occupied Europe. The facility, initially run by the Secret Intelligence Service, evolved under the Special Operations Executive to focus on sabotage techniques. Key figures like George Rheam contributed significantly to the training methods, culminating in a handbook that influenced SOE programs globally. Bernard O'Connor offers insightful context in the foreword.
