    SPYCATCHER by PETER WRIGHT with Paul Greengrass WILLIAM HEINEMANN: AUSTRALIA First published in 1987 by HEINEMANN PUBLISHERS AUSTRALIA (A division of Octopus Publishing Group/Australia Pty Ltd) 85 Abinger Street, Richmond, Victoria, 3121.

TO MY WIFE LOIS Prologue For years I had wondered what the last day would be like. In January 1976 after two decades in the top echelons of the British Security Service, MI5, it was time to rejoin the real world. I emerged for the final time from Euston Road tube station. The winter sun shone brightly as I made my way down Gower Street toward Trafalgar Square. Fifty yards on I turned into the unmarked entrance to an anonymous office block. Tucked between an art college and a hospital stood the unlikely headquarters of British Counterespionage. I showed my pass to the policeman standing discreetly in the reception alcove and took one of the specially programmed lifts which carry senior officers to the sixth-floor inner sanctum. I walked silently down the corridor to my room next to the Director-General's suite. The offices were quiet. Far below I could hear the rumble of tube trains carrying commuters to the West End. I unlocked my door. In front of me stood the essential tools of the intelligence officer’s trade - a desk, two telephones, one scrambled for outside calls, and to one side a large green metal safe with an oversized combination lock on the front.

  • A Rumour Exists Among Cambridge Students
    A rumour exists among Cambridge students – that they may be discretely and mysteriously tapped on the shoulder during their time there, meaning they have been invited to become a spy. It’s difficult to determine if this is still true; presumably the new spies would be too secretive to let it slip. But many students live in hope for the day they will become the next James Bond. Cambridge has a long-running association with secret intelligence, which has helped, and hindered, Britain through times of war and peace. Reach Cambridge students live and learn in the same university that has been home to many infamous spies – not bad for a residential summer school! We’ll take a look at some of the most famous spies associated with the city. Christopher Marlowe Marlowe is more widely known as a famous playwright, with some suggesting that he is the true author of Shakespeare’s plays. He studied at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, and it is alleged that it was during this time that he was recruited to be a spy. Elizabeth I presided over the first British Secret Services, used during her reign to gather intelligence against Catholics. Some evidence that Marlowe was involved in these activities is that he left Cambridge for long stretches of time that the university would usually not allow, and when he was in college, he bought much more food and drink than he would have been able to afford on his scholarship money alone. It was apparently the extra money he earned from being a government spy throughout his life which supplemented his income, allowing him to continue writing.

  • Volume 14 Number 004 Kim Philby
    Volume 14 Number 004 Kim Philby, Spying for the Other Side I Lead: Polished and elegant, with upper-class education and heritage, Kim Philby in the 1940s rose in the ranks of British intelligence. He was, however, spying for the other side. Intro.: A Moment in Time with Dan Roberts. Content: Harold Adrian Russell Philby grew up in India. Early on his father, a fixture in the British Civil Service there gave him the name Kim, after a Rudyard Kipling character. While studying at Trinity College, Cambridge in the mid-1930s, Philby came under the influence of Professor Maurice Dodd. His mentor reinforced in the boy a powerful trend among intellectuals in that decade. Many of them looked at the socialist experiment in the Soviet Union and believed they had discovered the future, a system that would transform mankind for the better. Ignoring the corrupt, inefficient, brutal and oppressive character of Stalinism, they became quiet, and sometimes not so quiet, champions of communism. Kim Philby became a life-long true believer. In the course of his Cambridge years he was inducted into The Cambridge Conversazione Society, an ancient and secret fraternity devoted primarily to discussion of important topics of the day. While a part of the so-called Apostles, he deepened his friendship with three other devotees of Stalinism, Guy Burgess, Anthony Blunt, and Donald MacLean, at least one of them also an Apostle. Each of the four rose in the ranks of the British government, MacLean as Foreign Office Secretary, the other three in the intelligence service, either MI5 or MI6.

STEALING SECRETS: COMMUNISM AND SOVIET ESPIONAGE IN THE 1940s ELLEN SCHRECKER' The fall of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War liberated thousands of pages of previously secret records. Coming from both sides of the former Iron Curtain, these materials have greatly expanded what is known about the long-hidden world of Soviet policymaking. The most sensational of those releases dealt with the Kremlin's espionage operations at the time of the World War II, revealing that somewhere between one and three hundred Americans and others gave information to Soviet intelligence agencies and that the Communist Party officials recruited many of these people. This Article examines this new material in order to understand espionage and the questions it raises about individual loyalty and disloyalty. It explores the activities of the main espionage networks and assesses the motivations of many intelligent and idealistic men and women who willingly entered the murky world of passwords, covernames, secret cameras, and all the other accoutrements of tradecraft or conspiracy that KGB operations required.

  • The Cambridge Ring
    Kelsey Bacon JR/SR Honors Project Faculty Advisor: Professor Jeffrey Burds March 22, 2012 THE CAMBRIDGE RING: A Biographical Account of Five King’s Men Who Spied for Stalin The Cambridge Five were the KGB’s crowning glory in their struggle against Fascism and Western Imperialism. The sheer degree to which these five men - Kim Philby, Guy Burgess, Donald Maclean, Anthony Blunt and John Cairncross – compromised the British Government makes the Cambridge Ring arguably one of the greatest, if not the greatest, penetration operations achieved to date. Yuri Modin remarked of the NKVD feat: “No other spy organization had accomplished such a devastating coup.”1 In a feat of brilliance, the Soviets had acquired young members of Britain’s elite who were poised for careers perfect for long-term espionage. Yet these men were not coerced. They did not spy under duress. They were youthful products of the 1930s whose passionate and liberal ideals had been awakened by the intensifying Fascist movement in Europe.2 Nor were they inspired by reward and they were quick to refuse any monetary gift from their clandestine employers.3 1 Yuri Modin, My Five Cambridge Friends, trans.

These men had begun as friends and, with the exception of Cairncross, had actively participated in the formation of their secret group.4 The overwhelmingly prolific nature of their work was largely the result of their own motivation.

  • The Life of Duncan Lee, Red Spy and Cold Warrior by Mark A
    2018-032 16 Apr. 2018 A Very Principled Boy: The Life of Duncan Lee, Red Spy and Cold Warrior by Mark A. Bradley . New York: Basic Books, 2014. Pp. xvii, 348. ISBN 978–0–465–03009–5. Review by David Cullen, Arkansas Tech University ([email protected]). Duncan Lee, a descendant of Revolutionary War hero Richard Henry Lee and Confederate general Robert E. Lee, was a Rhodes Scholar, an officer in World War II, a successful corporate lawyer, and a multimillionaire. He was also a spy for the Soviet Union. Readers with interests in Soviet- era espionage will recognize the names Elizabeth Bentley, Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, Aldrich Ames, Robert Hanssen, and “Cambridge Five.” 1 In A Very Principled Boy ,2 former CIA intelligence officer Mark Bradley 3 tells the story of a secret agent whose background gave no clue that he would betray his country. Relying on archival material, FBI documents, family papers, and files from the Venona Project,4 he explains in detail how Lee was recruited by and worked for the Sovi- ets, yet managed to escape arrest and, ironically, take advantage of American capitalism to be- come a very wealthy citizen. Duncan was born (1913) in China to Edmund and Lucy Lee, who worked there as missionaries from 1911 to 1927. Both instilled in their son a belief in Christ’s Second Coming and an idealistic need to embrace selfless public service. Always bright and hardworking, Lee attended Yale and Oxford universities, where he was exposed to radical interpretations of pressing issues of the day, especially the Great Depression and the Spanish Civil War.
