Notes
This book was presented to the Collection by Mr. Hubert Ross. The price quoted is our estimate of its value. After the First World War broke out, Holland, and the port of Rotterdam, became a prolific breeding ground for secret agents and spies. The neutrality of the Netherlands, its geographical position between the warring nations, and the proximity of the Western Front meant that the British and German secret services both chose the country as a base for much of their spying activities.
