"In the late summer of 1942, as Britain was preparing to mount her decisive offensive at El Alamein, Brigadier Myers and a small party were dropped behind the enemy lines in central Greece in order to interrupt their communications by blowing up a viaduct on the only railway to Athens. The resulting operations constituted one of the most daring, exciting and successful episodes of the sort in the entire war. But this was only the beginning. It was part of Brigadier Myers' task to make contact with the various Greek partisans and co-ordinate their efforts with the general strategy of the Middle East High Command." - from dust-jacket blurb.
