Abstract

The article discusses the case of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg who were executed in 1953 for stealing the secret of the atomic bomb. Topics include the testimony by Ethel's brother and sister-in-law, David and Ruth Greenglass, which implicated the Rosenbergs, an argument that Ethel was not a spy, and Julius' involvement in the atomic espionage.
