Corson, William R.
The Armies of Ignorance. The Rise of the American Intelligence Empire.
Publisher: Dial Press / James Wade, NY [c1977]. 'First printing'.
640 p., index; 23.5 cm. "The Armies of Ignorance is perhaps most valuable because it gives the citizens of this country-- and its lawmakers and elected officials-- the most comprehensive account ever published of the intelligence empire. It raises profound and troubling questions: Can intelligence activity at once be effective and conform to the laws of this country? Can any president fully gain control of the fantastic number of agencies currently in operation? Can Congress devise a new charter broad enough to cover both clandestine activity (with provision for effective review of such activity) and the possibly more important though less glamorous tasks of accumulating, analyzing, and making available the intelligence information necessary to secure not only a fragile peace but the safety and endurance of the American republic?"

Hamrick, S. J. [Tyler, W. T.]
Deceiving the Deceivers : Kim Philby, Donald Maclean and Guy Burgess / S.J. Hamrick.
Publisher: New Haven, CT, Yale University Press, 2004..
xvii, 297 p., 24 cm. This book has a tantalizing thesis all set out in its preface--that British Intelligence knew as early as1949, and maybe in 1947, that Kim Philby, Donald Maclean and Guy Burgess were Soviet spies. Unfortunately the book is a muddle of supposition and fuzzy arguments that leave more questions unanswered than are resolved. Even if the thesis is correct, MI5 still appears pretty incompetent. I pity the poor editors of this book--if this is the best they could come up with, the manuscript must have been a nightmare. Stock# 39,816. Fine/ dj fine.
