Sobre este artículo
Sidgwick & Jackson, London., 1975. First edition. Octavo. 200 pages. Photographs. Vassall passed naval intelligence to the Soviet Union over a period of eight years. His account of how he was recruited by the use of blackmail has been disputed. The Vassall Case was a huge news story at the time but was soon eclipsed by the Profumo Affair. Ah, those heady days of espionage and treason.A bit of teastaining to the margins of pages 127/8, not affecting the text. Head and tail of spine slightly bumped. Bump to bottom corner of front cove. Very good in very good indeed dustwrapper slightly creased at the edges. Uncommon.
