The Master Spy: The Story of Kim Philby

Front Cover
Vintage Books, 1990 - Biography & Autobiography - 292 pages
For years Kim Philby was the indispensable man in the spying apparatus of the West--the head of British anti-Soviet operations, the liaison between the Secret Intelligence Service and the American CIA, and the probable future "C", director general of the SIS. Then, in 1963, Philby fled to Moscow, and it was later revealed that the indispensable Englishman had been an agent-in-place for the KGB, recruited when he was only 22.
