Tradecraft: as intriguing as it is forbidden . . . Tradecraft is
the term applied to techniques used by intelligence personnel to
assist them in conducting their operations and, like many other
professions, the espionage business has developed its own rich
lexicon. In the real, sub rosa world of intelligence-gathering,
each bit of jargon acts as a veil of secrecy over particular types
of activity, and in this book acclaimed author Nigel West explains
and give examples of the lingo in action. He draws on the
first-hand experience of defectors to and from the Soviet Union;
surveillance operators who kept terrorist suspects under
observation in Northern Ireland; case officers who have put their
lives at risk by pitching a target in a denied territory; the NOCs
who lived under alias to spy abroad; and much more. Turn these
pages and be immersed in the real world of James Bond: assets,
black operations, double agents, triple agents ... it's all here.
