| Beschreibung: | Includes bibliographical references and index Introduction: the peril of disbelief -- The Revolutionary War -- The Civil War -- Espionage during the World Wars, 1914-45 -- The golden age of Soviet espionage : the 1930s and 1940s -- The atomic bomb spies : prelude to the Cold War -- Conclusion: espionage in the Cold War and beyond Can you keep a secret? Maybe you can, but the United States government cannot. Since the birth of the country, nations large and small, from Russia and China to Ghana and Ecuador, have stolen the most precious secrets of the United States. Written by Michael Sulick, former director of CIA's clandestine service, Spying in America presents a history of more than thirty espionage cases inside the United States. These cases include Americans who spied against their country, spies from both the Union and Confederacy during the Civil War, and foreign agents who ran operations on American soil. Some of the stories are familiar, such as those of Benedict Arnold and Julius Rosenberg, while others, though less well known, are equally fascinating. From the American Revolution, through the Civil War and two World Wars, to the atomic age of the Manhattan Project, Sulick details the lives of those who have betrayed America's secrets. In each case he focuses on the motivations that drove these individuals to spy, their access and the secrets they betrayed, their tradecraft or techniques for concealing their espionage, their exposure and punishment, and the damage they ultimately inflicted on America's national security. Spying in America serves as the perfect introduction to the early history of espionage in America. Sulick's unique experience as a senior intelligence officer is evident as he skillfully guides the reader through these cases of intrigue, deftly illustrating the evolution of American awareness about espionage and the fitful development of American counterespionage leading up to the Cold War |

Sulick Washington, DC Georgetown University Press ©2012 1 Online-Ressource (xiii, 320 pages) txt rdacontent c rdamedia cr rdacarrier Includes bibliographical references and index Introduction: the peril of disbelief -- The Revolutionary War -- The Civil War -- Espionage during the World Wars, 1914-45 -- The golden age of Soviet espionage : the 1930s and 1940s -- The atomic bomb spies : prelude to the Cold War -- Conclusion: espionage in the Cold War and beyond Can you keep a secret? Maybe you can, but the United States government cannot. Since the birth of the country, nations large and small, from Russia and China to Ghana and Ecuador, have stolen the most precious secrets of the United States. Written by Michael Sulick, former director of CIA's clandestine service, Spying in America presents a history of more than thirty espionage cases inside the United States. These cases include Americans who spied against their country, spies from both the Union and Confederacy during the Civil War, and foreign agents who ran operations on American soil. Some of the stories are familiar, such as those of Benedict Arnold and Julius Rosenberg, while others, though less well known, are equally fascinating. From the American Revolution, through the Civil War and two World Wars, to the atomic age of the Manhattan Project, Sulick details the lives of those who have betrayed America's secrets. In each case he focuses on the motivations that drove these individuals to spy, their access and the secrets they betrayed, their tradecraft or techniques for concealing their espionage, their exposure and punishment, and the damage they ultimately inflicted on America's national security. Spying in America serves as the perfect introduction to the early history of espionage in America. Sulick's unique experience as a senior intelligence officer is evident as he skillfully guides the reader through these cases of intrigue, deftly illustrating the evolution of American awareness about espionage and the fitful development of American counterespionage leading up to the Cold War American Civil War / (1861-1865) fast 1861 - 1999 fast Geschichte 1900-2000 Geschichte 1775-1950 gnd rswk-swf Espionage / United States / Case studies Espionage / United States / History Espionage, German / United States / History / 20th century Military intelligence / United States / History Spies / Communist countries / History / 20th century Spies / United States / Biography Spies / United States / History United States / History / Civil War, 1861-1865 / Secret service Military Science Political Science POLITICAL SCIENCE / Political Freedom & Security / Intelligence bisacsh TRUE CRIME / Espionage bisacsh Espionage fast Espionage, German fast Military intelligence fast Secret service fast Spies fast Geschichte Sezessionskrieg (1861-1865) Espionage United States Case studies Espionage United States History Spies United States Biography Spies United States History Espionage, German United States History 20th century Spies Communist countries History 20th century Military intelligence United States History Spionage (DE-588)4056287-6 gnd rswk-swf Militär (DE-588)4039305-7 gnd rswk-swf Ausland (DE-588)4068999-2 gnd rswk-swf USA USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd rswk-swf (DE-588)4006804-3 Biografie gnd-content (DE-588)4522595-3 Fallstudiensammlung gnd-content USA (DE-588)4078704-7 g Ausland (DE-588)4068999-2 s Militär (DE-588)4039305-7 s Spionage (DE-588)4056287-6 s Geschichte 1775-1950 z 1\p DE-604 http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=522582 Aggregator Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
