This history of British Imperial interventions in widely distant geographic areas in north and south Russia at the end of World War I describes the invention of a new kind of intelligence system. Based on an extensive use of documents, the study provides interesting lessons for dealing with Russia today at a similar turning point. In 1918, Britain used intelligence as a substitute for open diplomacy and turned the interventions to economic advantage for Britain and Canada as well. This study analyses the intelligence operations in terms of planning, tactics, communications and co-ordination, field activities, networks, trade and transport. Each of the interventions is described in detail. A lengthy bibliography provides important evidence also of the remarkable events that took place.
