Not every experiment is successful; Pawle covers both the more memorable secret weapons that were actually employed, along with quite a few more that sounded good in theory; but utterly failed in practice.

Colonel Warden was Churchill’s cover name when travelling. Thus this is an account of his and his assistant’s travels during the war years. Reprinted by White Lion in 1974 (ISBN: 0856176370).

Everything you ever wanted to know about rocket planes, guided missiles, floating harbors, radar, rockets, mine-clearing tanks, and a dozen other technological wonders--some fabulously successful and some more of a hazard to their users than to the enemy. Pawle writes his thematic chapters in a style that's readable without losing its authoritative air; sometimes you actually wish he'd loosen up a bit and embrace the absurdity of the machinery he's writing about.
