The National Security Archives greatest hits: over 50 secret documents, reproduced and annotated by a leading expert.

Written by National Security Archive expert Tom Blanton, 'How To Read A Secret Document' walks readers through a series of confidential corporate and top secret government documents - White House memos, spy photos, corporate accounting statements - explaining exactly how to decipher their contents.

Beginning with a short overview of secrets dating back to Hammurabi and forward from yellowcake in Niger, the book consists of over 50 documents, each with a short background and concise analysis. About half of the documents relate to the dirty laundry of the US National Security State. About a quarter come from Communist archives and reveal the other side of the Cold War. The other quarter are a quirky assortment of humorous and weird documents.
