Overview

Ronald Kessler has produced a work examining the FBI unlike any other. The Bureau will take readers from the FBI's creation in 1908 to the present day. Based on exclusive interviews, Kessler reveals the inside story surrounding the events of September 11th and the investigation into the anthrax mailings. The Bureau delves deep within the agency, presenting the organization in its historical context and answering questions concerning its somewhat checkered past.

This incredible book includes: the first definitive evidence that Hoover blackmailed Congress with information from his secret files; the source of Senator Joseph McCarthy's bogus claims that there were 205 Communists in the State Department; the truth about J. Edgar Hoover's sexual orientation; the disastrous Freeh years and Robert Mueller's efforts to correct the problems created by Freeh.
