Bay of Pigs Declassified: The Secret CIA Report on the Invasion of Cuba - National Security Archive Documents

Dislodged from the government through the Freedom of Information Act, this is an uncompromising look at high officials' arrogance, ignorance, and incompetence, as displayed in their attitude toward Castro's revolution and toward the Cuban exiles the CIA had organized to invade the island.


Marc Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p.[331]-333) and index. Publisher Marketing: For decades, the CIA's top secret postmortem on the April 1961 Bay of Pigs invasion has been the holy grail of historians, students, and survivors of the failed invasion of Cuba. But the scathing internal report on the worst foreign policy debacle of the Kennedy administration, written by the CIA's then-Inspector General Lyman Kirkpatrick, has remained tightly guarded - until now.
