Hardback. Condition: Good. The enthralling Cold War tale of a Nazi spymaster, a CIA-run radio station, and the mosque that became radical Islam s first home in the West> An impeccably researched and eye-opening work of social and political history. Wall Street Journal In the wake of the news that the 9/11 hijackers had lived in Europe, journalist Ian Johnson wondered how such a radical group could sink roots into Western soil. Most accounts reached back twenty years, to U.S. support of Islamist fighters in Afghanistan. But Johnson dug deeper, uncovering the story of a mosque in Germany. Its history stretched to World War I and, with CIA support, the mosque later became a haven for radical Islamists who spread their influence across the continent. Based on previously unmined archives in the United States, Germany, and Switzerland, A Mosque in Munich is a rare, ground-level look at Cold War spying and a parable for our dealings with radical Islam today. It is not just Johnson s investigative reporting that makes this book important. He also has a gift for historical narrative . . . He structures his cloak-and-dagger tale around a series of absurdly colorful characters. New Republic Pulitzer Prize winning>New York Times reporter Ian Johnson spent five years researching and writing this book, interviewing survivors, scouring archives, and pressuring governments to release sensitive intelligence documents. He is also the author of>Wild Grass: Three Portraits of Change in Modern China.…

Most accounts reached back twenty years, to U.S. support of Islamist fighters in Afghanistan. But Johnson dug deeper, to the start of the Cold War, uncovering the untold story of a group of ex~Soviet Muslims who had defected to Germany during World War II. As German agents fashioned the group into an anti~Soviet propaganda machine, they naively began a faltering liaison between political Islam and the West that would produce unintended consequences through the Cold War and up to today. And as West German and U.S. intelligence operatives vied for control of this inscrutable but influential Muslim community~with a quiet mosque in Munich at the center of their covert struggle~radical Islam built its first beachhead in the West. Culled from an impressive array of sources, including newly declassified documents, A Mosque in Munich interweaves the stories of several key players: a Nazi scholar turned postwar spymaster; key Muslim leaders across the globe, including members of the Muslim Brotherhood; and naive CIA men eager to fight communism with a new weapon, Islam. A rare ground~level look at Cold War spying and a revelatory account of the West's first, disastrous encounter with radical Islam, A Mosque in Munich is as captivating as it is crucial to understanding the mistakes we are still making in our relationship with Islamists today. "A Mosque in Munich should be read in the corridors of power and by citizens who take a serious interest in the continuing issue of how best to address the challenge posted by political Islamism, in both Europe and the Middle East." ~JEFFREY HERF, author of Divided Memory: The Nazi Past in the Two Germanys.…
