Author: James Risen

An explosive book filled with revelations about the secret intelligence scandals of the Bush administration and a US national security bureaucracy run amok.

With relentless media coverage, breathtaking events, and extraordinary congressional and independent investigations, tit is hard to believe that we might not know some of the most significant facts about the presidency of George W Bush. Yet beneath the surface events of the Bush presidency lies a secret history -- a series of hidden events that makes a mockery of many of the stories on the surface.

The hidden history involves domestic spying, abuses of power, and outrageous operations. It includes a CIA that became caught in a political crossfire it could not withstand, even against the wishes of the commander-in-chief. It features a president who created a sphere of deniability, in which his top aides were briefed on matters of the utmost sensitivity -- but the president was carefully kept in ignorance. 'State of War' reveals his hidden history for the first time, including scandals that will redefine the Bush presidency.
