An explosive, headline-making portrait of Allen Dulles, the man who transformed the CIA into the most powerful--and secretive--colossus in Washington, from the founder of Salon.com and author of the New York Times bestseller Brothers.

America's greatest untold story: the United States' rise to world dominance under the guile of Allen Welsh Dulles, the longest-serving director of the CIA. Drawing on revelatory new materials--including newly discovered U.S. government documents, U.S. and European intelligence sources, the personal correspondence and journals of Allen Dulles's wife and mistress, and exclusive interviews with the children of prominent CIA officials--Talbot reveals the underside of one of America's most powerful and influential figures.

Dulles's decade as the director of the CIA--which he used to further his public and private agendas--were dark times in American politics. Calling himself "the secretary of state of unfriendly countries," Dulles saw himself as above the elected law, manipulating and subverting American presidents in the pursuit of his personal interests and those of the wealthy elite he counted as his friends and clients--colluding with Nazi-controlled cartels, German war criminals, and Mafiosi in the process. Targeting foreign leaders for assassination and overthrowing nationalist governments not in line with his political aims, Dulles employed those same tactics to further his goals at home, Talbot charges, offering shocking new evidence in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

An expos of American power that is as disturbing as it is timely, The Devil's Chessboard is a provocative and gripping story of the rise of the national security state--and the battle for America's soul.

Essential!
Style: 19 Pack
After about 2 months of daily cleanings, the side brushes were looking a little ragged on my Eufy 12. The brushes included in this kit did come out a little bent, but as shown on the product page, when I dipped them in hot water they straightened right out. Intrigued, I decided to try that with the original brushes. They cam out looking like new! The only con is that the filters don't look like a perfect fit. The foam seems very minutely smaller than the original and the pleated filter seems slightly thicker.

All items fit the Eufy 30C perfectly.
Style: 19 Pack
We bought a Eufy 30C several months ago. After each time it is run, I clean the dust collection chamber, brush dust out of the filter and from the sponge-like pre-filter. After several uses, the filters simply were becoming clogged with tiny dust particles. This kit holds 10 filters and pre-filters, 8 brushes (or four sets) and one main roller brush. Every piece fits perfectly. They look and feel like original quality materials. This is a great set of replacement parts to keep your Eufy working like new.
