  1. 1. The Cia

    Drawing on newly declassified archives, the book chronicles how U.S. intelligence covertly funded, cultivated and collaborated with British political parties, cultural organizations and media during the Cold War to blunt the influence of the left and shape public opinion, tracing networks of secret financing, propaganda campaigns and institutional partnerships while showing how these interventions were negotiated, limited and sometimes resisted by British actors.
