James Klugmann appears as a shadowy figure in the legendary history
of the Cambridge spies. As both mentor and friend to Donald
Maclean, Guy Burgess and others, Klugmann was the man who
manipulated promising recruits deemed ripe for conversion to the
communist cause. This perception of him was reinforced following
the release of his MI5 file and the disclosure of Soviet
intelligence files in Moscow, which revealed he played a key part
in the recruitment of John Cairncross, the 'fifth man', and had a
pivotal war-time role in the Special Operations Executive, helping
shift Churchill and the allies to support Tito and the communist
partisans in Yugoslavia. In this book, Geoff Andrews reveals
Klugmann's story in full for the first time, uncovering the
motivations, conflicts and illusions of those drawn into the world
of communism - and the sacrifices they made on its behalf.
