Description

The memoir of a German-born immigrant, his early schooling in the UK, and his recruitment by a CIA feverishly gearing up to meet the new Soviet threat. . The book provides a unique perspective on CIA's clandestine operations, a look at the strengths and weaknesses of America's approach to Intelligence, and insight to the unpublicized contributors to the 9/11 Intelligence failure At times poignant, at times funny but always self-effacing, the book includes an account of life aboard a 37' sloop, exploring the Bahamas and the Caribbean, and the author's futile attempts to keep up with a wife determined to hike the Appalachian Trail The book's royalties are all donated to charity - specifically, to the Guardian ad Litem program that advocates for abused children.
