A review by spicysav
The Devil's Chessboard: Allen Dulles, the CIA, and the Rise of America's Secret Government by David Talbot
informative
slow-paced
3.5
I audio booked this, and honestly, it was a long 25+ hours. I do wish I read this book instead (but it would've taken up a lot of space in my backpack lol)
That being said, Talbot KNOWS their stuff. this was an incredibly detailed and informative account of the true evils in and around the American government and intelligence agencies. Some things legitimately felt just cartoonishly evil and then I'd have to remind myself that this is nonfiction.
