Argo

How the CIA and Hollywood Pulled Off the Most Audacious Rescue in History
Feb 18, 2013WordWoman007 rated this title 5 out of 5 stars
After seeing the movie version of Argo twice, I wanted to read Antonio Mendez's account of the events. I'm so glad that I did! This is a very well-written book, and I gained a real appreciation for the work that Mendez and his colleagues at the CIA do in cases like this, even though they're putting themselves in great danger. I also enjoyed reading about the rescue as it really happened, since there are - of course - differences between the book and the movie. All in all, this is a very enjoyable book.
