William Abel-Fisher. Dolgopolov N.M.

Although William Genrikhovich Fisher (1903-1971) is the most famous Soviet intelligence officer of the post-war period, not many people know this name. After all, he, a resident of Soviet intelligence in the United States in 1948-1957, went down in history as Rudolf Ivanovich Abel. Most of the biography of the legendary intelligence officer still remains under the heading “Top Secret”. This book opens the reader with the maximum possible information about the biography of William Fisher. Working on the book, the writer and journalist Nikolai Dolgopolov, the winner of the All-Russian historical and literary prize of Alexander Nevsky and the SVR Award, talked with many people who knew William Genrikhovich. The narrative included unique memoirs of the daughters of William Fisher, his colleagues - the heroes of Russia Vladimir Barkovsky, Leontina and Morris Cohen, as well as other famous scouts, including some whose names are still “closed.”
