Lured to Prague in May 1949, he was kidnapped and handed over to the Hungarian secret police. Tortured by them and interrogated too by their Soviet superiors, Field's forced 'confessions' were manipulated by Stalin and his East European satraps to launch a devastating series of show trials that led to the imprisonment and judicial murder of numerous Czechoslovak, German, Polish and Hungarian party members. Yet there were other events in his very strange career that could give rise to the suspicion that Field was an American spy who had infiltrated the Communist movement at the behest of Allen Dulles, the wartime OSS chief in Switzerland who later headed the CIA."--Dust jacket. 000772768 504__ $$aIncludes bibliographical references (pages 395-402) and index. 000772768 5050_ $$a'The strong sense of "otherness"', 1904-1934 -- Serving the cause, 1934-1941 -- 'Crowning achievement', 1941-1949 -- The march of events -- Staging the Rajk trial, 1949 -- Time of trials, 1949-1953 -- The ghosts return. 000772768 506__ $$aAccess limited to authorized users. 000772768 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000772768 60010 $$aField, Noel Haviland,$$d1904-1970. 000772768 60010 $$aDulles, Allen,$$d1893-1969. 000772768 650_0 $$aSpies$$zUnited States$$vBiography. 000772768 650_0 $$aEspionage$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000772768 650_0 $$aCommunism$$xHistory$$y20th century. 000772768 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aSharp, Tony, 1942-$$tStalin's American spy.$$dLondon : Hurst & Company, 2014$$z9781849043441$$w(DLC) 2014378747$$w(OCoLC)880404233 000772768 852__ $$bacq 000772768 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central 000772768 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete 000772768 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=1775275$$zOnline Access 000772768 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=1775275$$zOnline Access 000772768 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:772768$$pGLOBAL_SET 000772768 980__ $$aEBOOK$$aEBOOK 000772768 980__ $$aBIB 000772768 982__ $$aEbook 000772768 983__ $$aOnline
