On a field of red

"Ranging across four continents, On a Field of Red depicts a world plunging inexorably toward World War II, enmeshed in a drama of incredible intrigue and espionage, played out by a cast of master spies, diplomats, propaganda chiefs, military geniuses, and government leaders. [...] On a Field of Red is a work of historical significance as well as a saga of high strategy and low tactics; it is a true story that sheds new light on the nature of the Cold War and on the continuing relationship of the United States and the other Western powers with Soviet Russia today." --From dust jacket.
