   Professor of intelligence at American University, and formerly 
Commandant of the the Defense Intelligence College, John Macartney, 
said "CIABASE remains a one-of-a-kind, extraordinary resource for 
serious scholars, journalists, and researchers, regardless of their 
political leanings and research interests...there are no alternates 
out there. If there were, they would undoubtedly sell for thousands 
of dollars....I am in awe of the massive effort....in short I have 
found CIABASE invaluable, indeed indispensable..." 
Dr. John Macartney, American University.

   "An outstanding job." Seymour Hersh, Publitzer-prize-winning 
journalist.

   "A tremendously useful tool for any reporter or researcher."
The Nation.

   "A powerful tool that includes obscure sources and a 
comprehensive cross-index." The Progressive.

   "An encyclopedia of CIA actions." San Francisco Chronicle.

   "An amazing addition to the information world....
it is absolutely indispensable." Louis Wolf, editor 
Covert Action Quarterly.

   "Former CIA officer Ralph McGehee has recently updated his
excellent CIABASE system adding information from a number of new 
on-line or printed publications..." "Intelligence" an on-line 
magazine on worldwide developments in intelligence, 9/11/95. 

   The CIA called Ralph McGehee, who compiled CIABASE, an
analyst with few peers. McGehee served 25 years in the CIA,

headquarters.  Upon leaving the CIA, McGehee wrote the book
"Deadly Deceits" and began the multi-year process of compiling
