Retreat from Glory
New York: Garden City Publishing Company, 1938. hardcover. 8vo 348pp. from front flap: "Thousands of enthusiastic readers of British Agent will be delighted to learn that Bruce Lockhart has written the story of his adventures following his return to London after his exciting experiences in Russia. With the same frankness and in the same colorful style he continues from the point where his last book left off. Assigned to Prague as Commercial Secretary, he was immediately plunged into the maelstrom of Central Europe--into that strange, vitiated atmosphere of the post-war period in which the Peace Treaties were made and to which the troubled state of Europe is due today."
