The defection of Russian diplomats Vladimir Petrov and his wife Evdokia in 1954 ignited the Cold War in Australia. It had a profound effect on Australian political history. Robert Manne's classic and immensely readable account has long been out of print. This revised edition, reissued for the 50th anniversary, includes new information and a new introduction. The Petrov Affair is a remarkable history from one of Australia's most widely read and respected political commentators.
