    299 S. Signiertes Exemplar mit Widmung: "To Helen Robinson with best wishes - sincerely, Leon G. Turrou". Turrou war FBI Agent und Nazi-Jäger, der Im Februar 1938 von FBI-Direktor J. Edgar Hoover mit der Leitung der Ermittlungen im Fall Rumrich, einem Fall ausländischer Spionage, beauftragt wurde. Turrous Entschluss, am 20. Juni 1938 vom FBI zurückzutreten und die Details der Ermittlungen in einer Reihe von Zeitungsartikeln öffentlich zu machen, führte zu einer 27 Jahre andauernden Vendetta Hoovers. Turrous Zusammenarbeit mit der New York Post und Warner Brothers Pictures trug jedoch maßgeblich dazu bei, die Amerikaner auf die Nazi-Bedrohung aufmerksam zu machen, die öffentliche Meinung gegen die Neutralität zu lenken und die Finanzierung von Spionageabwehrbehörden vor dem Zweiten Weltkrieg zu erhöhen (Wikipedia). *-*-*-*-*-*- SHIPPING COSTS to other EU-COUNTRIES occasionally may be different than indicated (according to the weight).

    Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. FIRST EDITION. A report of the 1938 Nazi espionage investigation in the United States, written by the FBI agent who led the case and told to David G. Wittels. Turrou recounts the discovery and investigation of a German spy ring operating in America, including its attempts to obtain military information and its plans for further espionage. Turrou was an FBI agent and Nazi hunter who, in February 1938, was tasked by FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover with leading the investigation into the Rumrich case, a foreign espionage affair. Turrou's decision to resign from the FBI on June 20, 1938, and to publicize details of the investigation in a series of newspaper articles, sparked a 27-year vendetta by Hoover. However, Turrou's collaboration with the New York Post and Warner Brothers Pictures played a significant role in alerting Americans to the Nazi threat, shifting public opinion against neutrality, and increasing funding for counter-espionage agencies prior to World War II. BOOK: Publisher's grey cloth with multi-coloured streaks boards, red and black title label to spine; some dust-staining to top edge, off-setting to endpapers, else internally fine. DUST JACKET: Unclipped jacket priced $2.00 to inner flap, very light shelf wear to extremities, a little darkened to spine.…
