This is an unflattering biography of a man I had never heard of; Allen Dulles. He was an influential figure in American intelligence and subsequently the head of the CIA. According to this book, he did a lot of bad stuff. He was fond of Nazi's, very anti-communist and at one point he apparently tried to arrange the assassination of Charles De Gaulle.
Dulles may have helped arrange the assassination of John F Kennedy. Dulles was certainly influential on the Warren Commission which investigated the JFK assassination. The Warren Commission should perhaps have been called the Dulles Commission.
This is a good read.
