In this gripping book, a former Central Intelligence Agency staff officer unveils the true story of the birth of CIA, arguing that the role of the British in the CIA`s formation was much more important than has been believed. Basing his story on interviews with key players and formerly secret American and British archives, the author addresses controversial claims and notions about the collaboration between William J. ("Wild Bill") Donovan, the CIA`s first chief, and William S. ("Intrepid") Stephenson, director of British intelligence in the U.S. during World War II.
