Praise for LEGACY OF ASHES
"Tim weiner has read widely and dug deeply to produce this marvelous and convincing history of the CIA across six decades. That every quote is also on the record is a testament to his skill and also, thankfully, to the transparency that endures in the American political system." -STEVE COLL, author of GHOST WARS
"Legacy of Ashes, like all first-rate histories, is not only richly informative but provocative and insightful. It is a combustible mix of deeply researched history, solid reporting, and revealing anecdotes. Tim Weiner's history of the CIA explains not merely the past but the present, laying out in fine detail the structural and philosophical flaws that have dogged the agency from day one and which continue to leave the country unduly vulnerable." - TED GUP. author of NATION OF SECRETS
"This is a fascinating. deeply scary book. With prodigious reporting and on-the-record sources, Tim Weiner shows why the CIA has done so poorly in traditional intelligence. It's a riveting tale and also a warning. America must develop the ability-and the will-to know and face the facts about the world." -WALTER ISAACSON, author of EINSTEIN : HIS LIFE AND UNIVERSE
