John Joseph Loftus (February 12, 1950), is an American author, former high level U.S. government prosecutor and former Army intelligence officer. He is the president of The Intelligence Summit and president of the Florida Holocaust Museum in St. Petersburg. Loftus is an author of numerous books on an asserted CIA-Nazi connection including The Belarus Secret and The Secret War Against the Jews, both of which contain material claiming a Bush-Rockefeller-Nazi connection. He currently writes a weekly column called "spyview" for the Ami magazine. Mark Aarons (born 25 December 1951) is an Australian journalist and author. He was a political adviser to New South Wales Premier Bob Carr. Aarons was a member of the Communist Party of Australia from 1969 to 1978, and a Young Communist organizer in 1977. His 1986 ABC radio documentary series Nazis in Australia prompted the Bob Hawke government's inquiry into war criminals and formation of Special Investigations Unit. Aarons contends that right-wing authoritarian regimes and dictatorships backed by Western powers committed atrocities and mass killings that rival the Communist world, citing examples such as the Indonesian mass killings of 1965–66 and the killings associated with Operation Condor throughout South America.

Minor edge soiling. In 1965, a year after Molody's return to the Soviet Union, a book called Spy: Memoirs of Gordon Lonsdale was published with the approval of the Soviet authorities. It has to be read with caution. For instance, he claims Peter and Helen Kroger, convicted as members of the Portland Ring, were innocent. In fact they were veteran spies as the Soviets confirmed when they were exchanged in 1969. For Molody, life back in the Soviet Union was not a happy one. According to George Blake he was particularly critical of the way trade and industry were handled. He was given a post of minor importance and took to drinking. Konon Molody died, under what was thought by some to be mysterious circumstances, during a mushroom-picking expedition in October 1970; he was 48. Retired KGB officer Leonid Kolosov, Konon's youth friend, who co-authored The Dead Season: End of the Legend, maintained that upon Konon's return from the UK, he was healthy, but shortly afterwards he began complaining that KGB doctors were giving him injections for supposed high blood pressure, whereafter Konon was having headaches he never had before the injections but the doctors said he should expect to "feel worse before he felt better". He was buried in the Donskoy Cemetery in Moscow next to another illegal resident spy, Vilyam Genrikovich Fisher (alias Rudolf Abel). More

Benedict Richard Pierce Macintyre (born 25 December 1963) is a British author, reviewer and columnist for The Times newspaper. His columns range from current affairs to historical controversies. Macintyre is the author of a book on the gentleman criminal Adam Worth, The Napoleon of Crime: The Life and Times of Adam Worth, Master Thief. He also wrote The Man Who Would Be King: The First American in Afghanistan (about Josiah Harlan). This was also published as Josiah the Great: The True Story of the Man who Would be King. Harlan is one of the candidates presumed to be the basis for Rudyard Kipling's short story The Man Who Would Be King. His book on Eddie Chapman, a double agent of Germany and Britain during the Second World War, was titled Agent Zigzag: The True Wartime Story of Eddie Chapman: Lover, Betrayer, Hero, Spy. In 2008, Macintyre wrote an illustrated account of Ian Fleming, creator of the fictional spy James Bond, to accompany the For Your Eyes Only, Ian Fleming and James Bond exhibition at London's Imperial War Museum, which was part of the Fleming Centenary celebrations. Macintyre's 2020 book Agent Sonya: Moscow's Most Daring Wartime Spy, a biography of Soviet agent Ursula Kuczynski, was featured on BBC Radio 4. In 2021, Operation Mincemeat, a cinematic adaptation of Macintyre's 2010's book, subtitled The True Spy Story that Changed the Course of World War II, premiered. More

New York: Crown Publishers, 1978. Presumed First Edition, First printing. Hardcover. 23 cm. [6], 281, [1] pages. Illustrations. The author was a young Mennonite who went to Vietnam to help people in need. Caught up in the war, he was accused of being a North Vietnam spy and a CIA agent. The journal overflows with the stories of people who have sojourned in hell: soldiers and farmers, heroes and victims, teachers and torturers, the doers and the done-to. What emerges is a collective portrait of a modest, inventive, tenacious people who braved three decades of fire-storm. The author spent a total of five years in Vietnam. More
