here page 2. For access to the family and estate papers, which was conditional on permission from
the Herberstein family, I would like to thank the family itself and my deceased friend Dr Heinrich
Purkarthofer. The typewritten manuscript contains several deletions and alterations, which temper the
original statements and were evidently deisgned to enable a publication. This never came to pass.

376 See Degreif, Operative Planungen, 113–223, here esp. 214. The issue of the effects and extent of the
spying activities by Colonel Redl has certainly not yet been fully clarified. See, for example, Albert
Pethö, Agenten für den Doppeladler. Österreich-Ungarns geheimer Dienst im Weltkrieg (Graz, 1998) ;
Verena Moritz, Hannes Leidinger, Gerhard Jagschitz, Im Zentrum der Macht. Die vielen Gesichter
des Geheimdienstchefs Maximilian Ronge (Salzburg, 2007) ; Georg Markus, Der Fall Redl (Vienna,
1984). An examination of the files at the Russian State Military History Archives in Moscow leads
one to conclude that the information provided by Redl is likely to have been particularly important,
although in terms of quantity, it only amounted to a fraction of the information available to the Russians.
Furthermore, it is highly likely that there was at least one further high-ranking informant within the
Imperial and Royal General Staff who was working for the Russians, since an original copy (!) of the ‘M’
(Montenegro) war scenario is on file that was not prepared until the end of 1912, and to which Redl no
longer had access. To ascribe the progression of the war to Redl does not make sense
