Description
The Spy Who Changed The World by Mike Rossiter For over sixty years, the story of Klaus Fuchs has been shrouded in secrecy and disinformation. This book sets out to unravel the truth behind Fuchs' treachery, revealing for the first time his long career as a spy. Fuchs played a pivotal role in Britain's bomb programme during the atomic age, passing vital secrets about the atom bomb and the hydrogen bomb to the Soviet Government. His story is one of clandestine meetings, deadly secrets, family entanglements, and illicit love affairs, set against the tumultuous years from the rise of Hitler to the start of the Cold War. Through a detailed examination of archives in Britain, the United States, Russia, and Germany, The Spy Who Changed The World sheds new light on Fuchs' life and legacy.
