A Man Called'Int4epid. wil recognize these elements of Canada's role in the secret Allied war, conducted by Sir William Stephenson..

This summary lias been prepared using A Man Called Intrepid and The Quiet Canadian as a base and lias bee amplified by extensive interviews and investiga tion coniducted locally. .
