TUTE, Warren - The Powder Train - (Excellent Hardcover)

This 1970 book looks new and unread to me.    >>>   Warren Tute was born in County Durham in 1914. He entered the Navy in 1932, retiring in 1946, a career which included service on Earl Mountbatten's staff and a part in North African, Sicilian, and Normandy landings. After the war he was under contract to the late Ted Kavanagh of ITMA fame, writing for radio and television.   -   Over 30 of his works have been published. World sales of his books were well over the million, among them are The Rock, The Cruiser, Leviathan, The Golden Greek and The Admiral.   -   At London Weekend Television he was Head of Scripts and originated The Commanding Sea television series for the BBC and co-authored the book with Clare Francis.  >>>   George Mado, drunkard, lecher, ex-British agent whose cover has been blown far and wide--is hell-bent on revenge.  The Powder Train...the shadowy underworld jungle of international intrigue, espionage, defection, love and sex that entangles East and West during the Russian occupation of Czechoslovakia.
