Memoir of early career days of S…ir Fitzroy Maclean (1911 - 1996) while w/the British diplomatic corps in Russia. An absorbing mixture of military adventure, political judgement, urbane wit, cool humour & surprising incidents of a junior diplomat in Moscow. Account of travels in the USSR, particularly to forbidden zones of Central Asia; exploits in the British Army & SAS in the North Africa theatre of war; and time spent in Yugoslavia with Josip Broz Tito & the Partisans. 561 pgs w/archival photos, 37 chapters divided in 3 parts: 1, Golden Road; 2, Orient Sand; and 3, Balkan War. Later in his career, Sir Fitzroy was a Parliament member, and served as Under-Secretary for War to both the Churchill and the Eden governments. The American edition, published a year later in 1950, was titled Escape To Adventure. Small wonder Sir Fitzroy is thought by many to be upon whom Ian Fleming's James Bond is based.
