Spies Like Us
Osher Lifelong Learning Institute
Tales of espionage and intrigue peppered the years before the Great War, between the two world wars, and during the Cold War era. From those ordinary men and women who found themselves mixed up in danger to trained spies for whom danger defined their lives, the espionage and spy novel became one of the most popular genres in the twentieth century. Return with us now to yesteryear and see who betrays whom.
