Seller's Description:
Very Good. Size: 9x6x1; [From the library of Benjamin B. King. ] Hardcover and dust jacket. Tears to jacket with loss. Good binding and cover. Shelf wear. Pages unmarked. "Benjamin B. King was an intelligence officer for the British Royal Air Force during World War II. After World War 2 broke out in Europe in September 1939, he joined the British Royal Air Force as a 'penguin' who could not fly because of eyesight problems. He was assigned to Coastal Command at the airbase in Wick in the very north of Scotland, which provided defense for Britain in the North Sea, engaging the Germany Navy and Air Force. After his stint at Wick, Ben was transferred to the vital but vulnerable British base at Gibraltar off the coast of Spain, where the British monitored German and Italian military operations in the Western Mediterranean. While in Gibraltar, one of his tasks was to listen to Luftwaffe radio communications and track the movement of German and Italian airplanes. After Gibraltar, Ben was called back to Britain and assigned to the secret British code-breaking operations at Bletchley Park in England, which played a critical role in the Allies' war effort by monitoring and decoding German military communications and ultimately breaking the German Enigma code."-Obit.

Very good in Good jacket. 285, [3] pages. Author's Note. Illustrations. Footnotes. Appendices. Index. Some edge soiling. DJ has some wear, soiling, and small edge tear. John Stockwell is a former CIA officer who became a critic of United States government policies after serving in the Agency for thirteen years serving seven tours of duty. He is also a former U.S. Marine Corps major. He was hired by the CIA in 1964, spent six years working for the CIA in Africa, and was later transferred to Vietnam. In 1973 he received the CIA's Medal of Merit, the Agency's second-highest award. In 1975, Stockwell was promoted to the CIA's Chief of Station and National Security Council coordinator. As Chief of the Angola Task Force he managed covert activities during the first years of Angola's bloody civil war. After two years he resigned, determined to reveal the truth about the agency's role in the Third World. Since that time, he has worked to expose what he sees as the criminal activities of the CIA. Derived from a Kirkus review: The story John Stockwell broke on TV--of secret, expressly prohibited CIA paramilitary activity in Angola--is only the cutting edge of his case against the agency he served for twelve years. The CIA, he contends, is both iniquitous and ineffectual: iniquitous because it foments trouble, eludes Congressional and public scrutiny, and disgraces the U.S. around the world; ineffectual because of its "endless" list of intelligence failures and its basic inability to recruit strategically placed and reliable spies. The book is as much thriller as expose: Stockwell returns, disillusioned, from Vietnam; is offered a career-boosting post as chief of the new Angola Task Force; wavers, Hamlet-like, and then "rationalizes" his involvement on the basis that, this time, he'll be on the inside. But what he finds is no more than what he suspects: High-handed, high-living CIA field brass; one-upmanship at Langley headquarters; and everywhere a "clubbiness" that thwarts discipline. In Angola, he decides on an early field trip, massive U.S. arms aid could defeat the Marxist MPLA--but the U.S. is committed to a standoff, "no-win" policy until, too late in the day.
