Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Sidney Reilly was the most audacious, courageous, and successful spy in history. His adventures first came to light during the Russian Revolution in 1917 when he was tasked by Britains Secret Service with overthrowing the Bolsheviks after they had formed a new government. He had already succeeded in stealing the plans of the Kaisers new and modern fleet of battleships from Krupp, to help Britain win World War I, and was awarded the Military Cross in 1919.In 1953, novelist Ian Fleming used Reillys secret Admiralty Intelligence file to write his novels about a fictional secret agent he called James Bond 007. But Reillys true exploits were even more thrilling and fantastic than those of the fictional James Bond. Reilly was Britains best spybut was he also a Soviet double-agent?Author John Harte retells Reillys story as it really was, in fast-moving prose with an eye for telling detailand provides a twist: He tells us what really happened to Reilly after he vanished in Soviet Russia in 1925 and was assumed to have been murdered by Stalins secret police. Apparently not! Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781951082185
