1991014806N.Y.: Armchair Detective Library 1991. 1st hardcover edition. A fine unread copy in slipcase. ONE of 100 NUMBERED COPIES this being #98 SIGNED by Kaminsky bound in burgundy cloth without dust wrapper as issued in matching burgundy slipcase gilt stamping to front board and spine pencil sketch of the author by Carolyn Hartman at front board a very fine unread copy. A new introduction by Kaminsky. The 1st Rostnikov title. Set in Moscow the debut Ratnikov novel demonstrates how Kaminsky captures the flavor of that city. This powerful sense of time and place is doubly remarkable because Kaminsky had never been to Russia before he wrote the book. His depictions of Rostnikov coping with a corrupt Moscow police force underlying KGB pressures and the overall inefficiencies of working in the then Soviet Union are dead-on. Death of a Dissident shows a master storyteller at his finest. . Signed by Author. Limited/Numbered. Hard Cover in Slipcase. Fine. Limited Edition. Armchair Detective Library Hardcover

1952183941London: Ordnance Survey 1952. Later editions marked "restricted" revised from those produced by the War Office in 1919 and 1916 with isogonals correct to 1953. These maps were issued in the early years of the Cold War only a decade after the region was ravaged in the Battle of Stalingrad. Stepnoy now Elista was renamed only five years after this map's publication. In the early years of the Cold War the CIA attempted to gather information on the Soviet Union through aerial spying missions flown with the co-operation of the British government. "The RAF formed a top-secret reconnaissance outfit in the spring of 1951. Churchill approved the RAF overflight program knowing that if one of the planes came down on Russian territory Labour MPs in an embarrassed and angered House of Commons undoubtedly would force a vote of confidence to bring down his government. But he balanced that possibility against the desperate need for radar pictures of Soviet military targets that would held SAC and RAF bombers in the event of war" Burrows pp. 131-33. In 1952 John Crampton flew a high-speed high-altitude test run over the Berlin corridor which Bomber Command followed with three simultaneous sorties reaching as far as Moscow itself. After a ten-hour mission that triggered the Soviet air defences "All three planes made it back to Sculthorpe with their radar imagery and without a scratch" Burrows p. 134 angering the Kremlin and prompting a review of the nation's air warning systems. The map of Stalingrad is the fourth edition and the map of Stepnoy is the fifth. Single sheet of cloth 605 x 554 mm colour maps with key on each side pale border on Stalingrad side lettered in red blue and black. Map bright sometime folded and creased edges a little frayed: a very good copy. William Burrows By Any Means Necessary: America's secret air war in the Cold War 2001. hardcover
