Reviews
"Le Carré fans will find Spycraft anything but stodgy and over-long. It opens with a superbly vivid account."-Jonathan Bate, The Telegraph"A classic and incisive monograph, based on all the right primary sources, that also manages to be absorbing, illuminating and entertaining. The lavish illustrations are an integral part of clarifying a fiendishly complex story."-Diarmaid MacCulloch, Times Literary Supplement...
