Passionately fond of title


Recently, i just loan an interesting book from my school's library and I am totally fall in love with it. Oh my, i just can't get it out of my hands, i hug it to sleep everynight. The name of the book is "Legacy of Ashes: The History of the CIA" and it was a non-fiction. This book describes how a country with the title of "superpower" has failed to create a first rate spy agency. The chapter which i like to most was chapter 3: Lost Causes which describes the CIA under Kennedy and Johnson during the middle of the Cold War. Well, thanks to Tom Weiner on his masterpiece (after Black Hawk Down). Now, i could add another extra knowledge as a prelude to generate my "think tank".
