Walter Rothwell Jr., 92, passed away in his home January 21, 2015 … peacefully while reclining in his overstuffed comfortable chair … with numerous favorite books and magazines stacked on tables alongside. Further details about arrangements will be posted when known.
Wally was the subject of the biography just completed written by Wes Choc … a nonfiction account about his life during the Cold War. Drafted into the US Army (while living in Switzerland) the same month World War II ended might seem fortuitous, but because of Wally’s ability to speak four languages like a native, it enticed him into a world of strategic intelligence … and ultimately Cold War espionage. He became a spy. His unusual and ultimately consequential life story is recounted
