Almost a quarter of a century ago, first in the West, and then in Russia was published a book by the Grand master of Stalin's political intelligence Pavel Sudoplatov 'Intelligence and the Kremlin. Notes unwanted witness'. This work immediately became a bestseller. That is not surprising, because the author-the only one of the 'leaders of independent centers of military and foreign intelligence of the Soviet Union' Stalin era, who wrote detailed memories.In the new collector's edition of the book — a detailed and Frank story of Paul Sudoplatov 'about the confrontation of special services and zigzags in the domestic and foreign policy of the Kremlin in the period 1930-1950' unfolds against the background of photographs of the time. Portraits of employees and agents of the Soviet special services (many of which are published for the first time); photos of the places where the described events took place; unique pictures where the results of the Soviet intelligence are captured — all this allows you to take a fresh look at the events then.
