However this policy was inconsistent with the work of the SOE who wanted to develop guerrilla bands to harry the Germans. In the shadow of these conflicting objectives numerous Greek citizens acted as spies and saboteurs against the Axis forces. This book sets out the political and military situation in Greece and the Middle East and then describes covert operation in Greece. Bibliography and detailed index ER -
