Erstausgabe
Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. "This explosive book lays bare the personalities and institutional relations behind the headlines. It goes beyond the recent events to discern the roots of contemporary U.S. covert activity within the past two decades. Delves into the details of CIA and extra-CIA operations, including drug-trafficking, gun-running, government-toppling, and assassination." - back cover. "An informative and shocking book that takes us from the Bay of Pigs fiasco to the drug-fuelled secret war in Laos, from the urban hustle-and-bustle of Tehran to the steamy jungles of Central America. Profiteers pose as patriarchs, mercenaries claim to be humanitarians, and totalitarian thugs commit their atrocities in the name of political freedom - while back in Washington it's all just one more day at the office." - R.T. Naylor, author of Hot Money. 315 pages including footnotes and index. Clean, bright, tight and unmarked with very light wear. No dust jacket, as issued. A rare and high-quality hardcover example of this important exposé. ; 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
