Step into the cloak-and-dagger world of the spy, where secret missions, code names, and undercover operations are all part of the job description. Uncover the secrets of legendary spies throughout history, from Mata Hari to Allan Pinkerton. "Spies and Espionage, a Directory" is a thrilling account of legendary spies throughout history, including Allan Pinkerton, the "Godfather of Sleuths" and founder of the first detective agency, and Nancy Wake, "The White Mouse," who was Number One on the Gestapo's Most Wanted List with a price of five-million francs on her head. Each spy's deep, dark secrets are revealed with plenty of fascinating biographical information, while archival photographs help shed light on these shadowy individuals. A unique graphic feature is the Spy Dossier, which details each spy's affiliations, code names, and secret data. This is a must-have for Mata Haris and James Bonds everywhere.
