Opis

Michal Goleniewski was one of the Cold War’s most important spies but has been overlooked in the vast literature on the intelligence battles between the Western Powers and the Soviet Bloc. Renowned investigative journalist Kevin Coogan reveals Goleniewski's extraordinary story for the first time in this biography.

Recenzje

"Coogan proceeds to try and untangle a collection of the most intricate thickets in post WW2 intelligence history. Does he succeed? I think so; at any rate he succeeds in making intelligible areas of which I previously had little understanding....I was simply staggered by the amount of work Coogan has done and his extraordinary patience with some of the most intractable material imaginable." Robin Ramsay, Lobster Magazine.
