About This Item
Synopsis
In this remarkable tour de force of investigative reporting, James Bamford exposes the inner workings of America's largest, most secretive, and arguably most intrusive intelligence agency. The NSA has long eluded public scrutiny, but The Puzzle Palace penetrates its vast network of power and unmasks the people who control it, often with shocking disregard for the law. With detailed information on the NSA's secret role in the Korean Airlines disaster, Iran-Contra, the first Gulf War, and other major world events of the 80s and 90s, this is a brilliant account of the use and abuse of technological espionage.

About True Oak Books
True Oak Books is a proud member of the IOBA (Independent Online Booksellers Association) and adheres to their high ethical and professional standards.
In order to remain competitive with low value books and be able to offer them, we have a tiered shipping system to make low price transactions economically sound. Lower value books will ship in a protective bubble mailer, as 99% of these reach the customer without problems. We go beyond this for higher ticket items and provide box service. If your post office handles books roughly, you can request cardboard/box service for lower value items as well.
