  Cookridge, op. cit., calls Gehlen the “Spy of the Century” and points out that Soviet and East German publications termed him the “biggest single factor in the prevention of a possible East-West detente” (p. 5). While it is unlikely that any one person truly deserves that description, it is nonetheless true that Gehlen played a substantial clandestine role in East-West affairs that has generally been ignored by historians.
