The Cold War & Espionage

[Brian.]

I've read quite a few books about the Cold War and especially the espionage that happened during that time. I thought I'd list my top ten in case anyone is interested and want a recommendation. I'm also open to your recommendations on anything I haven't read on the subject.

 

My top ten, in no particular order.

 

• The Berlin Wall - Frederick Taylor
• Cold War - Jeremy Isaacs
• The Billion Dollar Spy - David E. Hoffman
• Stasiland - Anna Funder
• Dead Drop - Jeremy Duns
• A Spy Among Friends - Ben Macintyre
• Strangers on a Bridge - James B. Donovan
• Next Stop Execution - Oleg Gordievsky
• Deep Undercover - Jack Barsky
• 1983: The World at the Brink - Taylor Downing
