LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS
MAIN TEXT:
p19 Hugh Thomas during his tenure as Vicar of Old Newton, Suffolk (c.1860).
p21 News of Thomas’s sudden death was very quickly picked up by the local press.
p40 Sigmund Rosenblum gave the name of solicitor L.J. Sandford to vouch for his application to be allowed to research into medieval art at the British Museum.
p42 Rosenblum & Company was to all intents and purposes a patent medicine racket set up in 1896.
p46 Sigmund Rosenblum married Margaret Thomas five months after her husband’s sudden death.
p50 The coat of arms on Rosenblum’s letter-head incorporated the doubleheaded Russian eagle and shamelessly appropriated the Thomas family motto ‘no faith in the world’.
p95 Advertisement in Vozdukhoplavatel announcing the opening of the Krylia Aerodrome in September 1910; another Reilly project financed by other people’s money.
p112 Reilly’s marriage on 16 February 1915 almost certainly saved him from arrest by the New York Police Department.
p170 A Russian propaganda leaflet issued to Allied troops in Murmansk, naming Reilly as a conspirator in the plot to ‘overthrow the Russian Revolution’.
p173 The key to the SIS dictionary code used by Reilly and Hill to communicate with each other while in hiding.
p223 The only true statement Reilly made about himself in the Marriage Register was his address; everything else from his name, age, former rank and the status of his father, was a complete fabrication.
