Writing Spy Lives: Stephen Dorril and Andrew Lownie
details here
Celebrate Edinburgh Spy Week at Blackwell's Bookshop!
Two leading historians and biographers discuss what it means to write about men and women whose profession it is to conceal their identities. How do biographers address the secret lives of spies, and the lives of those who know them? And how do spies keep their professional lives hidden from their families?
