Soviet Union Spy Operations -...

Roger Holt

The KGB is one of the most well-known abbreviations of the twentieth century, and it has come to represent the shadowy and often violent activities of the Soviet Union's secret police and internal security agencies. 
  
 Indeed, it has frequently been used to refer to the Soviet state security agencies throughout its history, from the formation of the Cheka (Extraordinary Commission) in 1917 to the official demise of the KGB in 1992. The KGB has long been viewed as the West's biggest bogeyman during the second half of the twentieth century, whether it's associated with the excesses of the Russian Civil War, Stalin's purges, or even Vladimir Putin. 
  
The KGB: The History and Legacy of the Soviet Union's Notorious Spy Agency delve into the history of one of history's most notorious agencies. You will learn about the KGB like never before, thanks to images depicting important people, places, and events.

The Smallest Room in the House -...

Philip Cowley

Based on Philip Cowley's entertaining columns in The House magazine, this collection of political oddities and fascinating research, discussing the politics of fights, cockroaches, riots, potholes, beards and much more, is perfect for reading in multiple sittings. Discover the electoral relevance of chip shops and football grounds, what your lawn tells you about your voting, why politicians need to pay extra care in Scunthorpe, what MPs think of voters, why they all claim to be local and why they are all now so inexperienced.
Equal parts witty and thought-provoking, and with additional grumpy complaints about bats, overly long constituency names and giving the vote to sixteen-year-olds, it's a book that will appeal to the sort of person who likes to tell you that, actually, it's all a bit more complicated than that…
