Seller's Description:
Very good in very good jacket. x, [2], 262, [6] pages. Illustrations. Notes. Selected Bibliography. Index. Raised stamp of previous owner (noted Naval Authority John Forrest Lyman! ) on front free endpaper. Jeffrey M. Dorwart is a professor emeritus of history at Rutgers University. He received his BA from the University of Connecticut and MA and Ph.D. from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. Dorwart published histories of U.S. involvement in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-95, two histories of the Office of Naval Intelligence, 1882-1945 and a study of James Forrestal and Ferdinand Eberstadt. Illegal entry of private property for political purposes was carried out by a government agent under instructions from the White House. Several years later, a fellow agent formed a top-secret spy ring for the personal use of the President of the United States. Meanwhile, others working for the same organization broke into safes, eavesdropped, vandalized private property, and consorted with unsavory characters in the pursuit of domestic pacifists and radicals. These men were naval and marine officers attached, between 1919 and 1945, to the Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI). In this study of the Office of Naval Intelligence, Professor Dorwart analyzes the terrible dilemma faced by naval intelligence officers. He clearly shows how the bureau's agonizing efforts to reconcile the contradiction between its legal responsibilities and its extralegal activities proved unsuccessful. No matter how hard some agents tried to carry out their duties within the strictest definition of the naval intelligence mission, there were always others eager to launch into questionable clandestine operations. Whether willing participants, untainted observers, or victims of the intelligence dilemma, ONI officers hovered about the edges of diplomatic and military decision making, at time operating close to the centers of power where they could influence critical naval or national policies. This careful documentation of ONI's struggle with the dilemma, its use and misuse of power, and its seeming neglect of foreign threats in favor of domestic pursuits reveals for the first time some amazing facts about intelligence gathering in America. It is a significant, scholarly study that delves into previously unexplored areas to uncover some sensational events. Dorwart's precise, unemotional presentation allows readers to make their own judgments. Everyone who has followed recent revelations about World War II code breaking--Magic and Ultra--will find this book helpful in understanding the other side of the U.S. intelligence network.
