KOCH STEPHEN
Double Lives: Spies And Writers In The Secret Soviet War Of Ideas Against The West
The Free Press New York: 1994. Hardcover with dustjacket. Very good condition. The goal was to turn the Russian revolution into a world revolution and the strategy was a masterful campaign led by a propaganda genius to allign Western intellectuals with Stalin's Sovietg Union. The man assigned to this task was Willi Munzenberg a German communist living in Paris a publisher and brilliant manipulator of public opinion. He rerecruited the notable artists and writers of the age some conscious of their role others utterly unaware of their part in this carefully orchestrated crusade. The full story of this clandestine army has never before been told since most of the celebrities who led these double lives either did so in total secrecy or were themselves unaware of who was really pulling the strings. Leading intellectuals including Lillian Hellman Andre Gide Andre Malraux Ernest Hemingway Dorothy Paerker John Dos Passos bertolt Brecht and many others either were among Munzenberg's "agents of influence" or were manipulated by them. Steven Koch masterfully recounts this astounding stgory of betrayal covert operationsm and even murder which played itself out on an international stage from secet trials in Moscow to the halls of MI5 in London to New York and Hollywood. Includes an Index."This book tells one of the most disturbing stories of the century: how the best human intentions were used to facilitate the worst politics - totalitarianism." - Tzvetan Todorov author and critic ISBN: 0029187303.

Price inside dustcover: $25.00 NO writing marks or tears inside book. 300 pages. - In the tradition of Serpico and Prince of the City a brilliantly reported true story of power and betrayal in the NYPD set against the worlds of the Mafia and big-city politics In 1993 Vincent Armanti Undercover Detective #4126 agreed to infiltrate the branch of the Lucchese family responsible for the homicide of a beloved fireman. Already a legend for successfully posing as a hit man and arms smuggler Armanti transformed himself into Vinnie "Blue Eyes" Penisi-a veteran hood with an icy stare. Yet once under cover Armanti found that the wise guys he was chasing had access to classified police information. Stakes accelerated when the informant was revealed to be the son of the commander of NYPD's Internal Affairs Bureau. Again and again IAB's detectives compromised Armanti to protect the powerful man's son but even the police commissioner ignored the situation. Like the fireman who took an oath to serve Armanti stayed on the job even when it was clear his life was in danger. David Kocieniewski former New York Times police bureau chief reveals every moment of Armanti's effort to break through the wall enforced by the cops' top brass. Here with all its compromises is the city of New York. Here in all his humanity is an unforgettable hero battling for his honor and survival. Here is a remarkable story that ranks with the great police classics. Henry Holt & Company Hardcover

Price inside dustcover: $25.95. 467 pages. Tight spine bright pages. NO writing marks or tears inside book. Synopsis A vivid and gripping portrait of a spy at every stage of his life and career from the son of a spymaster who became a spy himself. Larry Kolb was born into a house of spies. Raised all over the world as the son of a high-ranking American spymaster Kolb was taught by his father to think look and listen like a spy. But when Kolb himself was recruited to join the CIA he declined choosing instead to pursue a career in business. He became among other things Muhammad Ali's agent a role that turned out to be a circuitous route back to the world of espionage. At Ali's side Kolb had invitations to the parties palaces boardrooms and bedrooms-especially in the Middle East-of many of the world's wealthiest and most powerful people: political leaders arms dealers global opinion-makers. Kolb's extraordinary access made him irresistible to legendary spymaster and CIA cofounder Miles Copeland. Beginning with secret negotiations with the Ayatollah Khomeini and a covert mission to Beirut to negotiate the release of an American hostage Kolb found his way back to the family business becoming Miles Copeland's eyes and ears and sometimes mouth in Libya Saudi Arabia Kuwait Iraq Afghanistan Nicaragua Peru the Philippines and Pakistan. Unlike any book before it Overworld captures what it genuinely means and feels like to be a spy--from the practical to the emotional revealing how the world of espionage and covert statecraft actually works-and exposing the dark heart of a life spent betraying confidences. In itself an adventure story of the highest order Overworld reads like the best of John le Carr� --but it's all true. Riverhead Books Hardcover

Koller Larry Editor
THE AMERICAN GUN Spring 1961
New York: Madison Books Inc. 1961. Volume 1 Number Two of a quarterly hardcover magazine devoted to "guns in history and in sport." The theme in this issue is marksmanship. The authors consider the function of the gun and how it can be fully realized only in the hand of a man skilled at hitting the mark -- whether a paper target as in one article a game animal or bird as in another or a military enemy an affronted gentleman a horse opera villain a monolithic law enforcer or a psychopathic law breaker in succeeding stories. The 10 1/4 x 13 1/2" 98-page text lavishly illustrated with color and black & white photos artwork and diagrams is clean and unmarked tight and square. The 10 1/4 x 13 1/2" covers showing a woodcut of dueling 19th century gentlemen is moderately worn along the spine and edges with somewhat more wear at the corners as is not unusual in an oversized format. Collectable. First Edition First Printing. Hard Cover. Very Good/Issued Without Jacket. Madison Books, Inc. Hardcover

MISSOULA: Rape and the Justice System in a College Town.
New York:: Doubleday 2015. Fine in fine dust jacket. First printing. "A stark powerful meticulously reported narrative about a series of sexual assaults at the University of Montana - stories that illuminate the human drama behind the national plague of campus rape . . . The Department of Justice investigated 350 sexual assaults reported to the Missoula police between January 2008 and May 2012. Few of these assaults were properly handled by either the university or local authorities.In this Missoula is also typical. A DOJ report released in December of 2014 estimates 110000 women between the ages of eighteen and twenty-four are raped each year.Krakauers devastating narrative of what happened in Missoula makes clear why rape is so prevalent on American campuses and why rape victims are so reluctant to report assault."
