Blank Spots on the Map: The Dark Geography of the Pentagon's Secret World Paperback - 2010
by Trevor Paglen; Introduction by Trevor Paglen
Paglen's research into areas that officially don't exist leads him on a globe-trotting adventure into a vast, undemocratic, and uncontrolled "black empire, which he chronicles in this adventurous and often chilling road trip through the underworld of the U.S. military.
Summary
Welcome to a top-level clearance world that doesn't exist...Now with updated material for the paperback edition.
This is the adventurous, insightful, and often chilling story of a road trip through a shadow nation of state secrets, clandestine military bases, black sites, hidden laboratories, and top-secret agencies that make up what insiders call the "black world."
Here, geographer and provocateur Trevor Paglen knocks on the doors of CIA prisons, stakes out a covert air base in Nevada from a mountaintop 30 miles away, dissects the Defense Department's multibillion dollar "black" budget, and interviews those who live on the edges of these blank spots.
Whether Paglen reports from a hotel room in Vegas, a secret prison in Kabul, or a trailer in Shoshone Indian territory, he is impassioned, rigorous, relentless-and delivers eye-opening details.
