The Haunted Wood Soviet Espionage in America- -The Stalin Era
- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Random House Inc
- Publish date: 02/01/2000
Description:
Four years ago, Allen Weinstein, the author of Perjury: The Hiss-Chambers Case, and Alexander Vassiliev, a former Soviet KGB agent turned journalist, were allowed to review and copy thousands of classified dispatches that documented the KGB's success in acquiring America's most valuable atomic, military, and diplomatic secrets. These efforts required recruiting a number of highly placed Americans to spy for the Soviets, among them a U.S. congressman; a top aide to President Roosevelt; the daughter of a key American ambassador; and ranking officials including Alger Hiss and Harry Dexter White. Here, too, for the first time, is Moscow's own record of relations with atomic spies Klaus Fuchs, David Greenglass, Ted Hall, and Julius Rosenberg, along with new information on the role played in Soviet espionage in America by Guy Burgess, Donald Maclean, and "Kim" Philby.
Expand description
This story has been reconstructed from Moscow's messages to its operatives in the United States and the reports back from its agents and operatives on those recruited and information stole. The book also describes many previously unknown personal tales of the Soviet underground: struggles for control among contending Soviet and American agents, love affairs, business ventures, defections, and actual or plotted murders.
