      Thomas writes on intelligence matters for the Daily Telegraph (UK), Welt Am Sonntag and Bild (Germany), Wprost (Poland), and the Daily Telegraph (Australia). He has been a regular broadcaster on current affairs for the BBC and US networks and has lectured widely on the intelligence world.

      He has produced more than sixty documentaries for television and radio and has won major broadcast awards from BAFTA Cymru and the Guild of Health Writers UK.

      His biography of Irish American prizefighter Tom Sharkey, I Fought Them All, which Lewis wrote with his wife, Moira Sharkey, won a Wishing Shelf nonfiction award.

      His journalism has appeared in a variety of newspapers and magazines, including the Times (UK), Private Eye (UK), and Military History (US).
