Publisher Description Six Gentlemen, One Goal: the Destruction of Hitlers War Machine In the spring of 1939, a top-secret organization was founded in London: its purpose was to plot the destruction of Hitlers war machine, through spectacular acts of sabotage. The guerrilla campaign that followed was every bit as extraordinary as the six men who directed it. One of them, Cecil Clarke, was a maverick engineer who had spent the 1930s inventing futuristic caravans. Now, his talents were put to more devious use: he built the dirty bomb used to assassinate Hitlers favorite, Reinhard Heydrich. Another, William Fairbairn, was a portly pensioner with an unusual passion: he was the worlds leading expert in silent killing, hired to train the guerrillas being parachuted behind enemy lines. Led by dapper Scotsman Colin Gubbins, these men---along with three others---formed a secret inner circle that, aided by a group of formidable ladies, single-handedly changed the course of the Second World War: a cohort hand-picked by Winston Churchill, whom he called his Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare. Giles Miltons Churchills Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare is a gripping and vivid narrative of adventure and derring-do that is also, perhaps, the last great untold story of the Second World War.

His book, Churchills Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, is the basis for a major TV series. Miltons other works--published in twenty-five languages--include Nathaniels Nutmeg, serialized by the BBC.
