Summary: A trip back in time to a city more and less genteel
Comment: A must for anyone with an interest in the reality and romance of a truly romantic city between 1939 and 1945.
One can feel the heat of the afternoon, smell the perfume of comfortable ladies and almost taste the cocktails in Shepeard's Hotel.
For those of you interested in the other reality, there are more things happening behind the scenes in this little book than the average fictional thriller.
My father once told me that Churchill is reported to have said "If the Germans do cross into Egypt, they will be thrown back by sheer weight of officers in Shepeard's Hotel". Perhaps he was right! 'Cairo in the war' is a wonderful read.
