"SPRING 1975: AS SAIGON FALLS, THE CIA DESTABILISES ANGOLA IN PREPARATION FOR THE NEXT WAR. 

John Stockwell was Chief of the CIA Angola Task Force. This is his inside story of the CIA's secret war in Angola, a war in which the CIA sought to recoup its prestige after the debacle of Vietnam. 

With a unique wealth of detail, John Stockwell reveals the secret CIA operations in Angola in which many millions were spent, many thousands died, and many lies were told in waging a war without purpose to American and Western interests and without hope of victory. He provides a terrifying insight into the bureaucratic muddle, the personal jealousies and power struggles and the sheer incompetence of the CIA clandestine services and suggests that they are not only a danger to the values of a free society, but also a liability to the free world."



The author:
"John Stockwell, who lived in Africa for ten of his early years, is a graduate of the University of Texas and an alumnus of the U.S. Marine Corps. He holds a second-degree black belt in judo, enjoys playing tennis and chess, and resides in Austin, Texas. After twelve years as a CIA officer he resigned from the agency on April 1, 1977."
