Constantinides: This book ties together three stories involving Israeli intelligence operations: the clandestine transfer of 200 tons of uranium from Belgium to Israel, the dash of the missile boats out of Cherbourg, and the botched assassination in Norway. "As far as is known, this is a fairly good account of the events examined."

According to Aftergood, Secrecy News (from the FAS Project on Government Secrecy), 11 Jun. 2002, this work "begins with a brief introduction to records retention and declassification policy. It then provides a detailed 200 page itemization of what kinds of national security records are located where, along with notations on their status and availability. Though overpriced at $85, the book has the potential to save serious researchers considerable time in finding what they are looking for, and to alert others to the existence of records they might never have known about."

In July 1942, a Soviet request for permission to operate a radio station at the New York Consulate was denied by the State Department. However, by December 1942, FCC monitoring sites were picking up shortwave broadcasts identified in February 1943 as coming from the Consulate. In March 1943, a transmitter operating from the Soviet Consulate in San Francisco was identified. The operation of the two transmitters ended in October 1943 when newspapers in New York and Los Angeles published a story about illegal radios at the consulates.

Constantinides: Assignments during the war took Davidson to Hungary, Cairo, Yugoslavia, and Italy, and included service with both D Section and SOE. This is "the best first-hand account of the split in SOE-Cairo over whom to support" in Yugoslavia, because Davidson at one point headed the operations section for Yugoslavia. Davidson supported extending support to Tito.
