Philip Agee, a former CIA case officer who spent over a decade running covert operations across Latin America, presents a meticulous and damning chronicle of the Agency's clandestine activities throughout the 1960s, naming names, detailing methods, and exposing the mechanisms by which the CIA manipulated foreign governments, media outlets, labour unions, and political parties in service of American Cold War policy.\n\nAgee's prose is unflinching and methodical, structured as a diary that gives the narrative an unsettling intimacy — the reader witnesses not just the machinery of espionage, but the moral disillusionment of a man who helped build it. A landmark work in the literature of political dissent, it ignited fierce controversy upon its 1975 publication, prompting legislative responses and international diplomatic incidents, yet it remains an essential primary document for understanding the shadow history of U.S. foreign policy. For anyone who questions what governments do in the dark, this account offers an answer that is impossible to dismiss.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49269347057883,"sku":"2026200016952-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/838dcb50-8147-43dc-82d7-25caa29be2b3.png?v=1788999023","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200016952-secondhand-inside-the-company-cia-diary","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
