Description
Reveal for the first time a devastatingly effective Soviet spy network that infiltrated the Manhattan Project & ferried America's top atomic secrets to Stalin. At the heart of the network was Ted Hall, a physics prodigy who was so secret an operative that even Klaus Fuchs, a fellow Manhattan Project scientist & Soviet agent, had no idea they were comrades. This book tracks Hall from his days as a brilliant schoolboy in New York City & on to Harvard, Los Alamos, & Chicago, where Hall continued to spy even after the war was over, passing more secrets while the Soviets were trying to build the hydrogen bomb. Illustrated.
