The City of Spies

Many cities have laid claim to the title City of Spies-Vienna, London, Moscow, even Miami. But no city has earned it more than Berlin.

From the rubble of World War II to the razor's edge of the Cold War, Berlin became the epicenter of a secret war fought in the shadows. Divided, occupied, and deeply contested, the city was home to the world's most elite intelligence operatives. American, Soviet, British, French, East and West German services-and even terrorist and revolutionary factions like the Red Army Faction and the PLO-turned Berlin into a vast chessboard of espionage, deception, and covert operations.

In Berlin: A Spy's Guide to its Cold War History in Story and Image, former Green Beret and intelligence officer James Stejskal delivers a gripping, photo-rich guide to the key players, locations, missions, and betrayals that defined Cold War Berlin. Part travelogue, part historical dossier, this book is your gateway to understanding how the Cold War was really fought-and why Berlin remains the most spy-saturated city on Earth.

History. Intrigue. Secrets.

Welcome to Berlin, the City of Spies.
