For the President's Eyes Only by Christopher Andrew

For the President's Eyes Only by Christopher Andrew

The co-author of KGB: The Inside Story offers a thorough and revealing examination of how presidents have used or misused secret intelligence. A fascinating narrative that shows how only four presidents proved equal to the challenge of using the often controversial service of U.S. Intelligence: Washington and Eisenhower, two former career soldiers; Kennedy, after he recovered from the Bay of Pigs fiasco; and Bush. Among the book's final revelations is the intelligence that changed Reagan's policy toward the -Evil Empire, ' and new information on Bush and Desert Storm.

Christopher Andrew is Professor of Modern and Contemporary History and former Chair of the Faculty of History at Cambridge University. He is also chair of the British Intelligence Study Group, Founding Co-Editor of Intelligence and National Security, former Visiting Professor at Harvard, Toronto and the Australian National University, and a regular presenter of BBC Radio and TV documentaries. His most recent book, The Defence of the Realm: The Authorized History of MI5, was a major international bestseller. His fifteen previous books include The Mitrokhin Archive volumes 1 and 2, and a number of path-breaking studies on the use and abuse of secret intelligence in modern history.
