NEW YORK (AP) — Former CIA director and Biden cupboard official William J. Burns is engaged on a e book about his years main the intelligence company.
Random Home introduced Tuesday that it might publish Burns’ “Diplomat Spy: A Memoir of Espionage in Revolutionary Times.” The discharge date continues to be to be decided.
“It was a profound honor to lead the men and women of CIA, and I hope in this new book to illuminate their remarkable service, and the crucial connection in this revolutionary new era between spycraft and statecraft,” Burns, who headed the CIA from 2021-23 and was elevated by President Joe Biden to a cupboard place. A veteran diplomat, he was a key adviser to Biden on Russia, Ukraine and different elements of the world.
In accordance with Random Home, Burns’ e book is “a riveting firsthand account of dealing with the most difficult foreign adversaries in the most difficult crises, a candid look at the personal and professional pressures which come with espionage, and a reflection on the future of intelligence at a time of rapid technological change and relentless attacks on public institutions.”
