Sobre este artículo
Cassell & CO., London 1961 Hardcover with dust jacket VERY GOOD book in VERY GOOD unclipped dust jacket Svetlana Gouzenko's husband, Igor, once head cypher clerk in the Soviet Embassy in Ottawa, defected to Canada taking with him documents disclosing the Soviet spy network in Canada - subsequently his family lived in hiding under Canadian Government protection. In this book, Svetlana recalls the strenuous years following the Revolution, the purges when one's life, job, superiors, and thought changed on the whim of the Soviet Government. Life was not all drudgery and work, especially for the children - for Stalin had said "Let's give our children a happy childhood."
