This title is the epic disturbing story of how the FBI is Americas real secret service. Such creatures of passion disloyalty & anarchy must be crushed out. The hand of our power should close over them at once". (President Woodrow Wilson 1919). The United States is a country founded on the ideals of democracy & freedom yet throughout the last century it has used secret & lawless methods to destroy its enemies. The Federal Bureau of Investigation is the most powerful of these forces. Following his award-winning history of the C.I.A. " Legacy of Ashes" Tim Weiner has now written the first full history of the F.B.I. as a secret intellligence service. Drawn entirely from firsthand materials in the F.B.I.s own files " Enemies" brilliantly brings to life the entire story from the cracking of anarchist cells to the prosecution of the war on terror. It is the story of Americas war against spies subversives & saboteurs
- & the self-inflicted wounds American democracy suffered in battle. Throughout the book lies the long shadow of J. Edgar Hoover who ran the F.B.I. with an iron fist for forty-eight years. He was not a monster but a brilliant confidence man who ruled by fear force & fraud. His power shaped America; his legacy haunts it. Reviews: " Truly impressive...[" Enemies"] could have been put together only by a journalist of Weiners stature". (Keith Lowe " Sunday Telegraph"). "A history that moves at the pace of a James Ellroy novel. But Weiners truth is wilder even than Ellroys fiction. Weiner sets the record straight on the FBIs first 100 years using only the Bureaus documents & oral testimony most of which has never been seen". (David Blackburn " Spectator"). " An outstanding piece of work even-handed exhaustively researched smoothly written & thematically timely... This is certainly the most complete book we are likely to see about the F.B.I.s intelligence-gathering operations from Emma Goldman to Osama bin Laden". (Bryan Burrough " New York Times"). " Extensively researched admirably understated yet terrifically entertaining". (Boston Globe). " Important & disturbing... Weiner lays bare a record of embarrassing even stunning failure in which the bureaus lawlessness was matched only by its incompetence...[he] has done prodigious research yet tells this depressing story with all the verve & coherence of a good spy thriller". (" New York Times Book Review"). About the author: Tim Weiner is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist at the " New York Times" where he has reported from Afghanistan Pakistan Sudan & fifteen other nations.
