"In 1949, Alexander Foote wrote a small book, “A Handbook for Spies” which contains all one needs to know to conduct espionage. Now comes another small volume, “Contra Cross”, by William Meara which contains much of what one needs to understand to counter or for that matter support an insurgency. Based on his experience in El Salvador and with the Contras in Honduras/Nicaragua during the 1980’s, Meara provides a crisp, thoughtful exposition of the problems and requirements for the winning of such conflicts. Meara’s thoughts and experiences are well worth pondering as our nation takes on its current adversaries."
