Description

An often undiscussed piece of Canadian history involves the actions of the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS), both on Canadian soil and abroad. This book focuses on a handful of CSIS operations and provides a great deal of detail. It also highlights how the global intelligence community works together, as well as the laws that allow that collaboration and limit what actions can be taken. Given the level of detail, vocabulary, and complex matters discussed, this book would be an excellent non-fiction title for an established reader invested in spy stories. Because it includes discussions of major historical events, the book does connect to social studies and provides a unique look at Canadian history from a side that is rarely covered in textbooks.
