Title ProperDocumenting the history of intelligence history
LanguageENG
AuthorWarner, Michael
Publication2009.
Summary / Abstract (Note)Intelligence historians long worked in the manner of antiquarians, painstakingly piecing together lost worlds from pottery fragments, scaps of manuscripts, and faded inscriptions on broken steles. Today matters have improved for antiquarians and intelligence historians alike. Scientific excavations of thousands of sites tell us how people once lived in them; genealogy can finally tell us who those people were. Intelligence historians, meanwhile, profit from the spreading declassification of originally top-secret documents and gain a better sense of historic intelligence agencies and operations as a whole.
