Intelligence Wars
New York: New York Review of Books, 2002. hardcover. 8vo. 450pp. from front flap: "For much of the twentieth century, the American public was astonishingly innocent about the role of intelligence organizations in international affairs. That changed abruptly in 1961, argues Thomas Powers, when a cover US-backed invasion of Cuba failed all too conspicuously at the Bay of Pigs. Afterward, everyone knew about the CIA. By the mid-1970s, congressional investigations had exposed many of its darkest secrets--though some questions may never be answered. No one outside the intelligence services knows more about their culture than Thomas Powers."
