Behind the Cold War an unseen war was waged for half a century, between the secret services of the East and West. By definition, this other war was invisible to the public, although at times aspects of it would burst into public view, as happened after the Watergate affair in the United States of America, which virtually paralysed the US secret services, the CIA and FBI. In contact with Britain`s SIS (MI-6) and consultant to the Foreign Office`s semi-secret, anti-subversion department, IRD, and to the CIA, Brian Crozier not only witnessed the unseen war from the inside, but also played an active role in it. At all times, however, he retained his freedom of hence the title, Free Agent. He also dealt with many other secret in France, West Germany, Holland, Belgium, Argentina, Iran, Egypt, Israel and elsewhere. In 1977, alarmed at the ripples of Watergate and other Western `own goals`, he created an international operational secret service in the private sector, known as `The 61`. Over the next ten years, this gave informal and confidential information on the Cold War to Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and President Ronald Reagan. This fascinating account of the `Unseen War` is part autobiography, part informal history. It throws a unique light on the events of five troubled decades and shows how, in the last analysis, the West did not `win` the Cold the Soviet side lost it.
Brian Crozier covered the first Indochina War for Reuters and the Algerian War for The Economist. His first book, The Rebels (1960), pioneered the study of political violence. In 1970, he founded the Institute for the Study of Conflict in London, whose reports became *required reading’ in Westem defence and intelligence agencies.
He is the author of three major biographies of military statesmen: Franco (1967), de Gaulle (1973) and Chiang Kai-shek (1976); and numerous political works.
