Reader's note

The angler, the cricketer, the lover - each has had his own bedside book. Why not the spy? Spies are, after all, members of a profession much more prone to insomnia than the followers of active outdoor or indoor sports. The hazards and rewards of a spy’s life are described here, and many of the tricks of their trade. Even the most experienced spy may obtain some new hints on the preparation of secret inks or methods of eliminating or checkmating his rivals. Most of the great writers on spying and many practitioners are represented in these pages; Sir Robery Baden-Powell and Belle Boyd, Major Andre and Walter Schellenberg, Sir Paul Dukes and Valdimir Petrov. There are short stories by Graham Greene and Richard Harding Davis and poems by Browning and Kipling. The attention of forgein Embassies and Legations is particularly drawn to page 251 where tey will learn something to their advantage.
