World Famous Spy Scandals
by Vikas Khatri
You have already read and appreciated the earlier book about World Famous Spies and Spy Masters, who sold themselves and their country by selling the information that they got or collected in usual course or another. The book gave you glimpses of the lives and achievements of the some of the well known spies who blazed a glorious trail in their work. In the present book, which is more or less a companion volume to the earlier, you will read about such sensational spy episodes as the stealing of atomic secrets; or scandals regarding Christine Keeler who cost Macmillan his prime ministership as also about spymasters like Guillaume and Elie Cohen who wormed their way into top secrets by winning the confidence of the heads of government Willy Brandt.
In our country, there have been many Larkins, Coomar Narains and Ramswaroops who tried to gnaw at the roots of our freedom and democracy, but were eventually exposed and punished. Many rare illustrations add to the usefulness of the book.
