Rocca and Dziak: These two articles "are a systematic expose of Soviet intelligence and security services' operating bases in the Far East."

From Abstract: The article looks at "whether Soviet intelligence ... recruited full-fledged agents ... as they did in the West." It "concentrates on Poland but also tries to grasp the bigger picture and focuses on the distinction between fully-fledged agents and so-called 'confidential contacts'. Records from the KGB archives on this topic are completely absent," but the author tries to get at "this interesting question with the help of the writings of several former KGB officers and other materials."

Surveillant 4.4/5 notes that a six-page section (beginning on page 352), entitled "Intelligence Wars," discusses Dobrynin's interaction with the GRU and KGB.
Kaiser, WPNWE, 25 Sep.-1 Oct. 1995, says that "when he sticks to the subjects he really knows, Dobrynin is a fine analyst and a wonderful raconteur. He has left a record of his life and his times that will enrich Cold War history for as long as anyone cares to read about it."

Dobbs, Washington Post, 1 Feb. 2007, notes that this work "is the latest example of a literary collaboration that became possible only with the collapse of the Soviet Union.... But there are pitfalls ... in gaining access to closed archives, and they are clearly on display in Khrushchev's Cold War. On the one hand,... the authors have unearthed many interesting details about the Soviet side of the Cold War. On the other, [the book is] marred by sloppy research, including mistranslations of Russian documents. The errors are so numerous that it becomes difficult to have much confidence in the authors' uncheckable citations from Soviet archival documents that remain closed to other scholars."
