In this book James Mac Gibbon's son Hamish tells the story of his parents their interaction with the communist party and their flirtation with wartime espionage in post - war Britain. It is a unique portrait of two very ordinary people caught up in the extraordinary events of World War Two and the Cold War brought to life by engaging prose and original MI 5 records. The MI 5 had long suspected James of espionage and interrogated him at the war's end. Without a confession there was little the British secret intelligence services could do except place James and his family under close surveillance the proof of which his children discovered shortly after his death. Hamish Mac Gibbon draws on a wealth of documents gleamed from official government archives which shows how mail was regularly intercepted and private telephone calls recorded. The result is a fascinating exploration of how the war espionage and a seemingly regular family depict the ordinary and the extraordinary interweaving.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: Maverick Spy Stalin's Super - Agent In World War Ii\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Macgibbon Hamish (Independent Writer)\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Bloomsbury Publishing Plc\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9781350178014\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 240 Pages, 34 Bw Illus\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 1\/28\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: War \u0026amp; Defence Operations","brand":"Macgibbon Hamish (Independent Writer)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51333557354801,"sku":"IN-G-9781350178014","price":31.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9781350178014.jpg?v=1746892346","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9781350178014-maverick-spy-stalins-super-agent-in-world-war-ii","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
