About this book

Churchill's Iceman: The True Story of Geoffrey Pyke: Genius, Fugitive, Spy by Hemming, Henry. hardcover edition. ISBN: 8601404226656.

After his suicide in 1948, Geoffrey Pyke was described as one of the geniuses of his time; only now can this biography reveal the full extent of his strange achievements. The epithet Iceman referred to a 1942 project to have Churchill build an aircraft carrier of reinforced ice; he also thought up Mass Observation, earned a fortune on the stock market and wrote a bestseller; but MI5 had material suggesting he was a senior Soviet Comintern official and a spy.
