ROBERTS SAM
The Brother: The Untold Story Of Atomic Spy David Greenglass And How He Sent His Sister Ethel Rosenberg To The Electric Chair
Random House New York: 2001. Hardcover with dustjacket. Good condition. Inscribed by the author. In 1951 Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were tried for and convicted of conspiring to steal atomic secrets. In 1953 their execution tore America apart. Fifty years later the acrimonious debate over the Rosenbergs' guilt and the raw emotions unleashed by a case that fueled McCarthyism and the cold war still reverberate. One man doomed the Rosenbergs: David Greenglass Ethel Rosenberg's brother the young army sergeant who spied for the Soviets at Los Alamos during World War II and whose testimony later sealed his sister and brother-in-law's fate. After serving ten years in prison he was released in 1960 and vanished. But Sam Roberts a New York Times editor found David Greeglass and after fourteen years finally persuaded him to talk. Includes an Index. "The Brother is a remarkable achievement: lucid amazingly fair-minded unsparing in its description of all the players in the case. Roberts has at once given us a marvelous read - a real-life spy thriller - and rendered a rare public service." - David Halberstam ISBN: 0375500138. Random House, New York: 2001 hardcover
