The World Was Going Our Way: The KGB and the Battle for the the Third World: Newly Revealed Secrets from the Mitrokhin Archive
Autor Christopher Andrewen Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 oct 2006
In
1992,
Vasili
Mitrokhin,
a
former
KGB
archivist,
snuck
out
of
Russia
carrying
with
him
a
vast
cache
of
transcriptions
of
top-secret
KGB
intelligence
files.
The
FBI
later
described
his
trove
of
documents
as
“the
most
complete
and
extensive
intelligence
ever
achieved
from
any
source.”
Renowned
historian
Christopher
Andrew
had
exclusive
access
to
both
Mitrokhin
and
his
archive.
In
1999,
they
published
the
explosive
bestsellerThe
Sword
and
the
Shield,
which
provided
a
complete
account
of
KGB
operations
in
Europe
and
America.
InThe
World
Was
Going
Our
Way,
Andrew
now
chronicles
the
KGB's
extensive
penetration
of
governments
throughout
the
Third
World-the
battlefield
on
which
the
U.S.S.R.
sought
to
achieve
global
supremacy.
Andrew's
definitive
account
fundamentally
revises
the
history
of
the
Cold
War,
and
sheds
new
light
on
the
state
of
the
world
today.
The
KGB
worked
tirelessly
for
decades
to
foster
anti-Americanism
in
the
developing
world,
making
this
book
essential
reading
for
anyone
seeking
to
understand
the
intractable
hostility
America
faces
in
the
ongoing
war
on
terror.
