One of the books that is still on sale at Audible.com is Legacy of Ashes: The History of the CIA.
Some Austrian scholars are discussing it on one of the mailing lists, and I decided to move it from my wishlist to my shopping cart.
I can't really review or recommend it, since I've only listened to about a quarter of it, so far, but I suspect I'll be giving it a thumbs up.
Meanwhile, I mention it here because I'm overwhelmed by how much of it already vindicates
-
Murray Rothbard's foreign-policy analysis from the 1950s onward, and
-
Robert Anton Wilson's information-theory analysis from "Celine's Laws," which you can read here on my website.
