Resident Wollweber's Secret War

Гришин Е.М. (Grishin E.)

Prominent German revolutionary, ‘little Lenin’, communist and Soviet illegal agent, Ernst Wollweber has made his particular mark in the annals of XX century history. He had meetings with Lenin, carried out Stalin’s assignments and was protected by Khrushchev. Wollweber regarded the Soviet Union as his second homeland. He believed in the bright future of communism and the development of socialism in the USSR and GDR. The illegal counter intelligence organisation which he founded during the years of war in Europe had no equivalent worldwide. Having been declared as the ‘enemy of the Reich’ by Hitler, he went through all the dangers of waging a secret war with fascism. He became the Minister of State Security of the GDR, turning the famous Stasi into one of the best special services in the world. For a wide circle of readers.
