Book Description Cloth. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Slightly worn and rubbed. First English edition. Illustrated, large octavo, pp 318, a little age-toned throughout, black cloth just very slightly worn, the dustwrapper is not price-clipped but just a little worn and scuffed, it's rear cover lightly scored, but now nicely protected in a removable clear cover. A good copy of a very scarce book.[Ursula Kuczynski (15 May 1907 - 7 July 2000), also known as Ruth Werner, Ursula Beurton and Ursula Hamburger, was a German Communist activist who spied for the Soviet Union in the 1930s and 1940s, most famously as the handler of nuclear scientist Klaus Fuchs. She moved to East Germany in 1950 when Fuchs was unmasked, and published a series of books related to her espionage activities, including her bestselling autobiography, Sonjas Rapport, of which this is a slightly updated translation. She was a singularly accomplished spy, whose espionage activities spanned some fifteen years, from 1931 to 1946. Deployed by the Soviet military intelligence service, she won recognition as one of the greatest female secret agents of the twentieth century, operating espionage rings in China, Poland, Switzerland and Britain. At the height of her career in 1942-1943 she radioed to Moscow invaluable data for constructing an atomic bomb derived from Klaus Fuchs, the nuclear physicist she controlled as an agent in England. She was evidently skilled at evading detection, escaping from close brushes with counterintelligence operatives. Not so Klaus Fuchs, who was caught and imprisoned in Britain for nine and a half years, or Richard Sorge, the master spy who had recruited her for the Soviet military intelligence apparatus and was also caught. Sorge, from whom she acquired her code name, Sonja, in 1933, was executed in Japan after warning Moscow in May 1941 (in vain) of Hitler s forthcoming invasion of the Soviet Union. ].
