Seller's Description:
Very Good. Soviet Espionage-US Gov't 808 pages. Illustrated. From the back cover: "The Witness Endures...Fifty years after its original publication, Witness retains all of its searing impact. Whittaker Chambers's harrowing account of his journey to hell and back--through espionage, treason, and terror--is, ultimately, a story of faith...Witness is part spiritual autobiography, part spy thriller, part trial drama, told in a compellingly eloquent, deeply moving voice of Dostoyevskian power."
This book is a well written autobiography of an interesting man who followed his political beliefs no matter the cost. The quotations from the Alger Hiss trial are particularly revealing and history as been on the side of Whittaker Chambers.
