Fighting Dirty: The Inside Story of Covert Operations from Ho Chi Minh to Osama Bin Laden (2001) By Peter Harclerode
 
The inside story of covert operations from Ho Chi Minh to Osama Bin Laden. From Allied operations in Eastern Europe after WWII, to the Afghan war and its legacy, "Fighting Dirty" investigates secret armies. The Afghan Mujahidin were funded by the West to resist Soviet occupation - not the first time western governments have resorted to secret armies. French undercover units in the Algerian war tried to assassinate their own President, whilst others achieved great success such as covert operations in Malaya and Oman, and Britain's secret war in Borneo against Indonesia. This is the story of those MI6, SAS and CIA covert operations.
