Everyone always says more than they're supposed to,” Central Intelligence Agency Director William J. Casey told Bob Woodward in one of their many interviews for this book. Using hundreds of inside sources and secret documents, Woodward has pieced together an unparalleled account of the CIA, its Director and United States government.Casey, the presidential campaign manager for Ronald Reagan in 1980 and CIA Director from 1981-1987, reflected and helped define the foreign policy aspirations of the Reagan Administration that will come to be seen as defining its era. Maneuvering around the Washington power centers, Casey was given a free hand and became probably the most powerful CIA Director in the forty-year history of the agency. He played comfortably and confidently on the world stage, committing his nation and President to new and expanded covert wars and clandestine relationships. Bound together by generation and philosophy, Reagan and Casey became a team that attempted to reshape the world.
Woodward presents new and authoritative documentation to show how from the first days of the new administration, the Nicaraguan contras, terrorism, Iran and Libya grew into obsessions for Reagan and Casey. This is a classic study of the relationship between the management of the world's most sophisticated espionage apparatus and the making of foreign policy. Treachery, deception, bribery, even assassinations were tools. Here is a portrait of a cunning, free-wheeling, brilliant and ruthless spy chief who rival John Le Carre's George Smiley.
VEIL is the story of the covert wars that were waged in a secretive atmosphere and became the centerpieces and eventual time bombs of American foreign policy in the 1980s.
