Spies, Wiretaps, and Secret Operations [2 Volumes]: An Encyclopedia of American Espionage by

phantomofthebookshop's review against another edition

2.0

Now woefully out of date, the encyclopedia is also riddled with errors around dates, associations, and basic fact. Some can be attributed to newly released information - other parts are just down to sloppy research. Wikipedia is, bizarrely, probably a better source these days, and as the book predates the recent exposures of modern cyberespionage and the leaking culture it lacks vital information revealed since about major intelligence matters.
