Wellington's spies
McGrigor, Mary2005
Book
Intelligence was just as important in the Napoleonic Wars as it is today. Then there was only one way of obtaining it - by spies and informers. McGrigor uses first hand accounts of three of Wellington's most successful Intelligence officers. The three men, all of Scottish descent, were very different in character.
