The notes and files were so startling and dramatic that the entire history of World War II will have to be rewritten. Gehlen's revelations embarrassed governments, cast doubts on famous leaders and causes, frighteningly underscore the fantastic power of espionage in world affairs. The Service is the memoir of General Reinhard Gehlen, legendary spymaster-in-chief, Hitler's head of military espionage in Russia who, as the war ended, transferred his mammoth files and network of spies to the service of the United States, ultimately to become chief of the official West German intelligence agency. Make no mistake, this man committed atrocities against humanity. He is a monster that survived and went on to be the Western nations’ monster against an even bigger monster, Joseph Stalin.
