Abstract

"Rogue Agent" by James Crossland is the first-ever biography of Robert Hamilton Bruce Lockhart, a figure largely forgotten in popular consciousness. Lockhart was involved in a failed plot to overthrow the Bolshevik leadership in Moscow in 1918, but his story extends beyond this event. Crossland draws from Lockhart's own papers, diaries, and fictional writings to provide a comprehensive and evocative portrait of this elusive figure. The biography explores Lockhart's intelligence, language skills, passion for writing, and his flaws, while treating him with dignity and respect. "Rogue Agent" sheds light on a previously overlooked figure in British espionage history. [Extracted from the article]
