Del autor del bestseller Grandes Generales de la Historia llega un Nuevo exitante libro sobre los m\u00e1s grandes esp\u00edas de la historia y c\u00f3mo sus actos de espionaje y operaciones encubiertas cambiaron el curso de la historia. Ya sea Eneas Tacticus, quien cre\u00f3 la ciencia militar del occidente; Francis Wlasingham, el esp\u00eda maestro de la Reina Elizabeth quien frustr\u00f3 numerosos intentos de asesinato y forj\u00f3 una red de espionaje internacional en el ocaso del colonialismo Europeo; o Richard Sorge, el esp\u00eda alem\u00e1n alcoh\u00f3lico de los sovi\u00e9ticos cuya intercepci\u00f3n de inteligencia militar previno el colapso del ej\u00e9rcito ruso en la Segunda Guerra Mundial, cada uno de estos esp\u00edas tuvo un impacto mayor en la sociedad moderna. Este libro explorar\u00e1 las vidas y tiempos de los diez m\u00e1s grandes esp\u00edas, o redes de espionaje, en la historia. Algunos han guardado un estatus de legendarios, como Mata Hari, la cortesana y bailarina ex\u00f3tica de la era de la Primera Guerra Mundial quien comparti\u00f3 la cama de tantos oficiales franceses y alemanes que no pod\u00eda evitar volverse doble agente. Otros espiaron por convicciones ideol\u00f3gicas puras, como George Koval, el esp\u00eda de Iowa que filtr\u00f3 secretos nucleares estadounidenses a la Uni\u00f3n Sovi\u00e9tica, acelerando el programa nuclear de Rusia por a\u00f1os y haciendo la carrera armamentista de la Guerra Fr\u00eda posible. Otros han tenido una adoraci\u00f3n religiosa \u2013Nathan Hale, el esp\u00eda de la era revolucionaria, tuvo una Carrera muy corta pero se convirti\u00f3 en el primer m\u00e1rtir de Estados Unidos y un s\u00edmbolo nacional. Cualquiera que haya sido su raz\u00f3n de espionaje, estos esp\u00edas representaron la mano invisible del poder del gobierno. Sus vidas fueron rodeadas de misterio \u2013 y muchos tuvieron antecedentes tan convulses que a\u00fan no comprendemos cu\u00e1les fueron sus verdaderas lealtades, si es que tuvieron alguna. Pero, a pesar de sus vidas enigm\u00e1ticas, fueron la mano invisible que ayud\u00f3 a dirigir el curso de la historia<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
