About This Book

An intelligence officer recounts undercover missions and inquiries inside post-revolutionary Russia, describing clandestine travel, forged identities, arrests and escapes, and practical efforts to aid collaborators and refugees; interwoven are observations on the gap between Bolshevik rhetoric and everyday realities, propaganda's flexible terminology, and the resilience and attitudes of ordinary people; the narrative blends episodic personal adventures with political analysis and reflections on the human consequences of revolutionary upheaval.
