Edge Books: Spies

Edge Books: Spies series.
This book discusses the equipment used by members of successful espionage teams. Such topics as codes, disguises, weapons, and information-gathering techniques are given cursory overviews. Though the text is easy to read, the superficiality of content limits the book's value for those with more than a passing interest in the topic. Photographs and sidebars help extend the text. Reading list. Glos., ind.
