Industry Reviews

An extraordinary book - Andrew Marr, Start the Week

'Gripping' - 5 out of 6 stars - Time Out

Meticulously researched and superbly readable - Robert Douglas-Fairhurst, Daily Telegraph

Streatfield does an important service by bringing this curious phase to our attention again. Vivid descriptions of key moments in the story are interspersed with analysis. - Christopher Sylvesters, Financial Times

Marvellously engrossing . . . Streatfield's narrative control cannot be faulted. You know where every story is going, but how it gets there is always a thrill. His research is formidable. - Bryan Appleyard, The Sunday Times
