Red Cloth. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. First U.K. Edition. Jacket worn around the edges and spine, price clipped, two small closed tears at back. Illustrated with b/w line drawings. For three years (from 1947 to 1949) Admiral Stevens was Naval Attache in Moscow. He went to Russia determined to find out as much about the country as he could. He was exceptionally well equipped for the task. His diplomatic status enabled him to travel to places and to do things denied to the official visitor, whilst his knowledge of the language, his acute intelligence and his avidity for information allowed him to take the fullest advantage of these opportunities. In Moscow bars, in Leningrad, in the Caucasus and Siberia, on hunting and fishing expeditions, Admiral Stevens talked with an enormous number and variety of people. Although shadowing and restrictions never for a moment allowed the author to forget that he was in a totalitarian country, he found the Russians nearly always ready to talk and often outspoken.
