| This is a fascinating look from a different perspective of some of the major FBI incidents spanning a twenty-five year career that ended in retirement in 1995. Clint Van Zandt provides a little background material about his growing up and makes no apologies for being a family man who loves his country and his agency. However, the autobiography takes off with specific incidents, including some overseas, especially the more famous ones like the 1985 siege of the Covenant, the 1993 Waco confrontation with the Branch Davidians, the Unabomber, and his suggestion that Oklahoma City was tied to Waco, not the Middle East. This is an excellent autobiography of a dedicated law enforcement official who spent a career Facing Down Evil, as it is the behind the scenes look at these cases and more that will grip the audience.
