Book Talk: Spy Sites of New York City

Through every era of American history, New York City has been a battleground for international espionage, where secrets have been created, stolen, and passed through clandestine meetings and covert communications. Highlighting 233 spy sites through 380 photographs and maps, Spy Sites of New York City (Georgetown University Press, 2020) takes readers inside this shadowy world and reveals the places where it all happened. Trace the footsteps of spies and spy hunters and discover true stories of derring-dos and double-crosses that put even the best spy fiction to shame.

Open House New York and Rizzoli Bookstore invite you to a talk with authors H. Keith Melton and Robert Wallace as they weave through a guide to the region’s secret history.
