True Men And Traitors

"In this memoir, former high-level CIA agent David W. Doyle helps lift the veil that has kept the Agency's inner workings hidden from the public. Sharing his many adventures - and misadventures - Doyle reveals in great detail how the CIA operates, in war and in peace, whether recruiting agents, employing trade craft, or trying to extricate itself from some major snafu.".

"Informative and unflinchingly straightforward, this rare chronicle of an intriguing career also includes a powerful section on CIA traitors such as Aldrich H. Ames and Harold James Nicholson, which gives new perspective on the far-reaching damage betrayal causes. In addition, Doyle provides a cogent argument for the necessity of state espionage in today's unpredictable, increasingly dangerous world - and, in effect, answers the frequent question: Why spy?"--BOOK JACKET.
