Some spies do their work and escape, while others are compromised, imprisoned, and--a few--executed. \u003ci\u003eSpy Sites of New York City\u003c\/i\u003e takes you inside this shadowy world and reveals the places where it all happened.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 233 main entries as well as listings for scores more spy sites, H. Keith Melton and Robert Wallace weave incredible true stories of derring-do and double-crosses that put even the best spy fiction to shame. The cases and sites follow espionage history from the Revolutionary War and Civil War, to the rise of communism and fascism in the twentieth century, to Russian sleeper agents in the twenty-first century. The spy sites are not only in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, and the Bronx but also on Long Island and in New Jersey. Maps and 380 photographs allow readers to follow in the footsteps of spies and spy-hunters to explore the city, tradecraft, and operations that influenced wars hot and cold.
