Derived from 30,000 top-secret files of the KGB's Foreign Intelligence Service, The Mitrokhin Archive sparked controversy in Whitehall and Fleet Street. It also made Melita Norwood - Britain's grandmother-spy - an overnight media celebrity. This huge book is the result of a collaboration between Vasili Mitrokhin, a former senior officer of the Soviet Foreign Intelligence Service, and Christopher Andrew, Professor of Modern and Contemporary History and Chair of the Faculty of History at Cambridge University.
