    Author Sheila Fitzpatrick
    “Book Descriptions: In 1968 historian Sheila Fitzpatrick was 'outed' by the Russian newspaper SOVETSKAYA ROSSIYA as all but a spy for Western Intelligence. She was in Moscow at the time, working in Soviet archives for her doctoral thesis on AV Lunacharsky, the first Soviet Commissar of Enlightenment after the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution.

    Punctuated by letters to her mother in Melbourne and her diary entries of the time, and borne along by Fitzpatrick's wry insightful narrative, A SPY IN THE ARCHIVES captures the life and times in Cold War Russia.”
