Dated but informative all-the-same
Norman Gelb wrote this in the 70s, and boy does it show?
One of the very last sentences in the book says, "with the increasing use of computers." Wow!
Get past this and Gelb informs you of spying and espionage history, the international major players (as of 1970), important spies and paymasters, and various other facets.
If you have an interest in such things this will happily sit on your 'bookshelf' as a decent subject reference; just be mindful of when it was written.
