Description - Greek Memories by Sir Compton Mackenzie

The best collection of military, espionage, and adventure stories ever told. The Dialogue Espionage Classics series began in 2010 with the purpose of bringing back classic out-of-print spying and espionage tales. From WWI and WWII to the Cold War, D-Day to the SOE, Bletchley Park to the Comet Line this fascinating spy history series brings you the best stories that should never be forgotten. Compton Mackenzie, celebrated writer of Whisky Galore and Sinister Street, then regarded as a literary giant and a noted man of letters. Mackenzie had also been MI6's man in Greece and Greek Memories contained assorted Secret Service documents and the real name of the first 'C'. Even though that particular Secret Service chief had died nine years earlier, Mackenzie was hauled before the courts and Greek Memories was banned from publication. Mackenzie subsequently published a heavily censored edition of Greek Memories, with the controversial material removed. The original has remained banned for the past 78 years. Now, for the first time ever, the original Greek Memories is available to buy in this country.
