His first publications were on the social, economic, archaeological and environmental impact of the 19th and 20th century coprolite industry in the UK, France, Spain and the United States.

From here the RAF's Special Duties Squadrons (and for a time the US Carpetbaggers) sent in over 600 secret agents and supplied the many resistance groups in occupied Europe. He has published numerous accounts of the women agents, sabotage training and sabotage operations (including blackmail sabotage) in Norway, Denmark, Holland (the Netherlands), Belgium, France, Greece, Spain, Portugal and Gibraltar He has written accounts of German-trained agents infiltrated into Britain; Soviet Comintern agents brought to Britain and infiltrated by SOE into Western Europe; Spanish Republicans trained for missions in Spain, and surrendered or captured anti-fascist Soviet, Austrian and German soldiers who were trained for SOE sabotage and subversion missions.
