Venona

This groundbreaking audiobook delves into the Venona Project, a covert U.S. initiative revealed in 1995 that decoded thousands of Soviet intelligence messages from World War II. It uncovers significant espionage activities against the United States, revealing connections to key figures like Julius Rosenberg and Alger Hiss, as well as Soviet infiltration into critical projects like the Manhattan Project. Authors John Earl Haynes and Harvey Klehr utilize the Venona papers alongside newly accessible archives to provide a meticulously documented examination of Soviet espionage during the early Cold War.
