The Foundation of the CIA: Harry Truman, the Missouri Gang, and the origins of the Cold War
The US was late to the practice of intelligence, but during World War II the country created a new model of combining intelligence collection and analytic functions into a single organization—the Office of Strategic Services. How did this outfit transform into today’s CIA? Dr. Richard E. Schroeder, retired CIA officer and author of The Foundation of the CIA, reveals how. This book will be available for sale and signing at the event.
