Agent Jack: The True Story of MI5's Secret Nazi Hunter door Robert Hutton

The author has done an incredible job of running down a maze of sources to produce this book.
The Epilogue and notes on sources are fascinating reading in themselves.

I did skim some later in the book, as the level of detail was beyond my attention span, but I did appreciate the author's work.

Agent Jack: The True Story of MI5's Secret… door Robert Hutton

Well written book and educational. Teaches us much about the the NAZI party in UK before WWII. Also shows that most of the ones that remained active during the war were useless idiots.

Agent Jack

A good book if you want to find out just how much support and sympathy the English had for the Nazis and the rise of fascism and the lengths that some would go to to give it a home in England. The book, of course is about the lengths that some went to, to make sure that didn’t happen.

Factual without being dry, interesting without being repetitive, and structured to illustrate without being simplistic.

There must have been some kind of collective amnesia after the war on the parts of both the pro and anti fascist supporters for I have read nothing of people being removed from office or position because of their previous open support of Hitler, including many Royals and aristocrats especially.

Worth a read.… (meer)

This is really a well written book, and the research is amazingly well done. However, I struggled finishing this book. There are a lot of people in this book and I had a hard time keeping them straight.

Thank you to Netgalley for the opportunity to read this book in exchange for my honest review.
