Declassified CIA Cold War documents

The Library began receiving volumes of declassified CIA documents in early 2000. These compilations bring together previously classified analysis and reports on the Soviet Union, eastern Europe and other Cold War enemies. In addition to the documents themselves, each volume contains some explantory material such as brief introductions, timelines of events, acronym lists, etc. These are the volumes received so far:

• Assessing the Soviet Threat; the Early Cold War Years. PREX 3.17:AS 7. Editor: Woodrow J. Kuhns.
• At Cold War's End; U.S. Intelligence on the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, 1989-1991. PREX 3.2:C 67. Editor: Benjamin B. Fischer.
• Intentions and Capabilities; Estimates on Soviet Strategic Forces, 1950-1983. PREX 3.17:IN 8. Editor: Donald P. Steury.
• Selected Estimates on the Soviet Union, 1950-1959. PREX 3.17:ES 8. Editor: Scott A Koch.

Some of these titles, as well as others, are available online from the CIA's Center for the Study of Intelligence.
