Spies: The Secret History of Espionage


Discover the untold, thrilling stories of real-life spies, their covert methods, and secret technologies that outshine the myths of pop culture espionage.

The world of espionage is shrouded in mystery—even to those in it. And so much of what we think we know about spy craft is rooted in literature and film and drama. But even though the true nature of espionage is quite different, that doesn’t mean history’s real spies are any less heroic. Or fascinating.

In Spies: Secret History of Espionage go behind the shadows with a distinguished panel of historians—including a former intelligence case officer—in search of the secret meeting places, complex codes, stealth observations, and cutting-edge technologies spies have used throughout history.

Using historical visuals and captivating graphics, we cover topics ranging from spies in pop culture, the “femme fatale,” and the most effective secret agents in World War II. As you get to know real spies and their methods, you’ll uncover how their work is much more fascinating than anything pop culture could dream up.
