" The book is not well written; there is a lot of repetition of information. The. inside peak of the CIA with its infighting and the history of Cold War intelligence was fascinating. "
" This was a truly disappointing book that I barely got through. I agree with a previous reviewer. It was hard to follow, disorganized, and at the end of the day was one-man's opinion on what happened. I really cannot recommend this book to anyone. "
