Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 1998. 258 pp, 9 1/4" H. "From 1942 to 1973, John Starnes was engaged in such areas as communications intelligence and, during his tenure as the first civilian director-general of the RCMP Security Service, in counter-espionage and counter-subversion. His recollection of these confidential activities and the part he played in them is supported by a wealth of formerly classified official documentation recently released under the Access to Information Act. This is a highly personal narrative, brought vividly to life with excerpts from the letters that Starnes wrote home from London during the Second World War, when he moved in intelligence circles and met many prominent diplomats and policy-makers. His story recalls several of the key political moments of this century, including the creation of the United Nations, the glory days of External Affairs, the Six Day War between Israel and Egypt, and the October Crisis in 1970. His memoir offers a fascinating look at Canada's security and intelligence work from the point of view of an official deeply involved in many covert government activities." Dust jack has a soft crease at the top of the rear panel near the flap-fold.. Not Signed. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Very Good.
