Seller's Description:
Good, good. 589, illus., appendices, notes, bibliography, index, some wear and soiling to DJ. First published in a very limited edition in 1975 by the CIA's Center for the Study of Intelligence. By a veteran CIA official, this will probably remain the definitive account of its subject. Going back to the founding of the Office of Strategic Services during WWII, and culminating with the creation of the CIA by Executive Order in 1947, the author covers all feasible sources in his effort to delineate the climate of opinion in Washington, which, very gradually, led to the generally conceded need for an American intelligence-gathering headquarters.
