Sir Paul Dukes, who was Chief of the British 

 Secret Service in Soviet Russia for a consideralile 

 time after the frontier had been closed, is about 

 to publi.sh through Messrs. Williams & Norgate a 

 volume of his experience and observations. 



Under many disguises, rendered possil)le by his 

 intimate knowledge of the country, he lived the 

 life of the people and observed v/hat was taking 

 place. 



At one time passing as an employee of the Extra- 

 ordinary Commission for the .suppression of the 

 counter-revolution, at another as a soldier of the 

 Red Army, he saw Soviet Russia from the inside, 

 while his adventures in escaping arrest and cross- 

 ing and recrossing the frontier were intensely ex- 

 citing.
