Viac o knihe
The author describes his life from his early soldiering in World War I through his years as head of Czech Intelligence to his escape from Czechoslovakia after the Communists took over in 1948. Astonishing long out of print memoir from a man whose life the whole word should remember. General Moravec had the rare distinction of fighting and risking his life to free his country from not one but three empires (Austro-Hungary, Nazi Germany, Soviet Russia). His tales of starting the Czech intelligence service from scratch and eventually leading it into exile are hair raising real life thriller stuff. If I could assign students one book to tell the story of Europe in the 20th century it would be this one. Get your hands on a copy
