Great facts... poor conclusions

As others have said more eloquently than I. However, it is worth repeating (or at least speaking up about it) the fact that the conclusions reached by the author are the worst kind of historical reconstruction.The Soviet Union is presented as more of a victim of the west rather than a primary cause of what the author would have you believe they were a victim of. According to the author, the Cold War was the fault of the west, we were the bad guys. As most who have even barely studied history know, things are seldom that black and white. The author poses his theory without ever mentioning all the offenses and atrocities commited by the Soviet Union which gave the west good reason to be deeply concerned.If you have read Venona or any other more balanced works, you will see this book for what it is and take the facts for what they are worth and leave the subtle attempt at indoctrination out of the picture.

A must read!

Anyone interested in 20th century world history simply has to read this work. I personally have no interest in 'spycraft' but found (finally!) a truthful and complete accounting of UK/US imperialism and plain thuggery. Believe readers interested in a better understanding of the past and current situtation in the Middle East will, in particular, be fascinated (and disgusted with the decades of Western dastardly deeds and misinformation).

brilliant

A most wonderful book.You won't have the chance of being bored even for one second.Every page is a blockbuster.Meticulously researched and -I believe-the first of its kind in depth of analysis.It will surely be the reference book on the subject for years to come.John Le Carre, you are having a heavy contestant in your field.

Superb

A great book and a must for all spies. It probes deep into the establishment and functioning of this organisation. You will not be disappointed if you love books on spying and related activities
