The Mighty Wurlitzer: How the CIA Played America

In The Mighty Wurlitzer: How the CIA Played America​​​​​,​ Hugh Wilford uncovers the hidden history of the CIA's use of citizen front groups to wage ideological warfare during the Cold War. Beginning in the 1940s, these fronts spanned from student organizations to cultural institutions, secretly influencing a culture toward promoting U.S. interests and opposing communism. Wilford has brought us a compelling analysis of Cold War era politics that continues to be relevant to contemporary global affairs.
