Abstract

Secrets From the C.I.A. Archives
Corn, David | November 29, 1993 issue

add to cart   close window

More than half a million pages of newly released government documents related to U.S. President John F. Kennedy's assassination are sitting in boxes in the National Archives, available to all who have the patience to plow through them. But don't expect the files to yield startling evidence on the premier national death. The assassination material is mostly familiar, and even contains papers that undermine some conspiracy theories. The real value of the new releases lies instead in what they reveal, through episodes not explicitly connected to the assassination, about the cold war and the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency.
