These are volume 4, 5 and 6 in the publisher's Intelligence series. This is the complete, unedited, official Report of the Royal Commission. These volumes provide firsthand knowledge of Soviet espionage agent recruiting methods--how citizens of Western democracies were developed through "ideological motivation" and not necessarily by money. Case studies of individual agents, verbatim testimony of witnesses, and actual Soviet espionage documents are included. A Royal Commission of Inquiry to investigate espionage, headed by Justices Robert Taschereau and Roy Kellock, was conducted into the Gouzenko Affair and his evidence of a Soviet spy ring in Canada. It also alerted other countries around the world, such as the U. S. and the U. K., that Soviet agents had almost certainly infiltrated their nations as well. Gouzenko provided leads which assisted greatly with ongoing espionage investigations in Britain and North America. The documents he handed over exposed numerous Canadians who were spying for the Soviet Union. A clerk at the External Affairs, a Canadian Army captain, and a radar engineer working at the National Research Council were arrested for espionage. A spy ring of up to 20 people led by Fred Rose was also exposed. British nuclear scientist Alan Nunn May was arrested in March, 1946. The FBI tracked down a Soviet spy, Ignacy Witczak. More

Anatoli Mikhailovich Granovsky (born 1922) is a former NKVD agent who defected to the West in 1946 and authored an autobiographical book about his career in Soviet intelligence. When Berlin fell, Granovsky was one of the NKVD men who appropriated files and supplies from the Gestapo and other German agencies and sites, transferring such resources back to Moscow. Anatoli Granovsky was reassigned to appear as a sympathetic Soviet war veteran "fighter-poet" on tour in London, spreading pro-Soviet propaganda. Granovsky, was reassigned a cover as a member of the Merchant Navy in 1946. In Odessa Granovsky had been approached by the MGB, successor to the NKVD, and asked to be their spy aboard the ship Petrodvorets, with which he would rendezvous in Stockholm after traveling aboard another ship. He slipped away from his colleagues in a crowd and went to see the assistant U.S. Military Attache. The Americans refused to grant Granovsky asylum and he was arrested by Swedish authorities. On November 8, 1946, shortly before he was to be repatriated to Soviet authorities, Granovsky was granted asylum by King Gustaf V of Sweden. Granovsky wrote his memoirs under the title All Pity Choked [London 1955], but later editions were published under the title I Was An NKVD Agent. More
