In the end, an estimated 40,000 Vietnamese were killed and countless atrocities were perpetrated in the name of 'neutralizing' the Vietcong 'infrastructure'. This work is nothing less than a meticulous historical narrative of Phoenix from its roots through its tragic conclusions, based upon four years of research and interviews with over one-hundred program participants." - dust jacket.

[14], 231 pages. Footnotes. Glossary. Index. "The CIA is not now nor has it ever been a central intelligence agency. It is the covert action arm of the president's foreign policy advisers. In that capacity it overthrows or supports foreign governments while reporting 'intelligence' justifying those activities. It shapes its intelligence to support presidential policy. Disinformation is a large part of its covert action responsibility, and the American people are the primary target of its lies." - Ralph McGehee. "McGehee spent 25 years in the CIA from 1952-77. He entered a super-patriot at the height of the Cold War; he left disillusioned and shattered by what he had seen and learned, especially in Vietnam where he saw a tragic and senseless war develop." - back cover.
