Secret Power, New Zealand's role in the international spy network

ebook from 1996 by Nicky Hager, recommended by Cryptogon:

“The most detailed and up-to-date account of the work of any signals intelligence agency in existence… a masterpiece of investigative reporting.” The book contains the first detailed account of the world-wide electronic surveillance system called Echelon, which is used to spy on international communications including e-mails and phone calls.
