DJ has slight wear. Clayton J. Lonetree (born 1961), son of a Winnebago father and Navajo mother, served nine years in prison for espionage. During the early 1980s, Lonetree was a Marine Corps Security Guard stationed at the U. S. Embassy in Moscow. Lonetree is the first U.S. Marine to be convicted of spying against the United States. Lonetree, who was stationed in Moscow as a guard at the U.S. Embassy in the early 1980s, confessed in 1987 to selling documents to the Soviet Union. Lonetree was seduced by a female KGB officer named "Violetta Seina" in that year. He was then blackmailed into handing over documents when he was assigned to Vienna, Austria. These documents included the blueprints of the U.S. Embassy buildings in Moscow and Vienna and the names and identities of U.S. undercover intelligence agents in the Soviet Union. He was tried in a military court and convicted of espionage on August 21, 1987. More

New York: Random House, 2003. First Edition [stated]. Hardcover. xvi, 478, [2] pages. Illustrations. Index. Foreword by Henry A. Kissinger. Richard McGarrah Helms (March 30, 1913 – October 23, 2002) served as the United States Director of Central Intelligence (DCI) from June 1966 to February 1973. Helms began intelligence work with the Office of Strategic Services during World War II. Following the 1947 creation of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) he rose in its ranks during the Truman, Eisenhower, and Kennedy administrations. Helms then served as DCI under Presidents Johnson and Nixon. As a professional Helms highly valued information gathering and its analysis. He also prized counterintelligence. Although a participant at planning such activities, he remained a skeptic about covert and paramilitary operations. Helms understood the bounds of his agency role as being able to express strong opinions over a decision under review, yet working as a team player once a course was set by the administration. While DCI, as a result of earlier clandestine operations in Chile, he became the only DCI convicted of misleading Congress. His last post in government was Ambassador to Iran, 1973–1977. He was a witness during the CIA investigation by the Church Committee in the 1970s. More

New York, N.Y. Ballantine Books, 1982. First Ballantine Books Edition [stated]. Presumed first printing. Mass market paperback. xvii, [1], 298, [4] pages. Corners of several pages creased. Some page soiling and discoloration. Cover has some wear and soiling. The thrilling true story of Lt. Col. Pyotr Popov, the first agent the CIA recruited within the Soviet intelligence service. Reads like the best of le Carre -- but fact. This book builds to a dramatic conclusion with the kind of mounting tension one would expect to find in the best novels about espionage. William J. Hood was a retired senior officer in the Central Intelligence Agency and a writer. During World War II, Mr. Hood volunteered for the Office of Strategic Services. "Bill Hood was one of the heroes of O.S.S. and C.I.A., a major figure and leader in the clandestine services over three decades, a member of Allen Dulles's wartime team, and a successful and inspiring leader of operations in Central Europe and at headquarters," wrote a former colleague. After the war, Mr. Hood remained in Europe, working for the agency in Austria, Germany, and Switzerland, often as chief of station. He was one of three deputies of James Jesus Angleton, the head of counterintelligence at the agency. Before retiring, he was chief of operations for Latin America and had worked in New York undercover at the United Nations. After he retired, Mr. Hood wrote "Mole," a nonfiction story of a Soviet Army colonel who became a double agent. He then wrote three spy novels, "Spy Wednesday," "The Sunday Spy," and "Cry Spy," all of which were well received. His last book was "A Look Over My Shoulder," a biography of Richard Helms, whom he had worked for when Helms was the director of the agency. More
