"Must reading for anyone interested in the CIA or American intelligence since World War II." --The Washington Post"Legacy of Ashes is the best book I've yet read on the CIA's covert actions." --Edward Jay Epstein, The Wall Street Journal"Legacy of Ashes should be must-reading for every presidential candidate--and every American who wants to understand why the nation repeatedly stumbles into one disaster abroad after another."--The Boston Globe "A timely and vital contribution . . . [that] glitters with relevance."--Los Angeles Times"This is by far the scariest book of the year."--The Christian Science Monitor
