Book excerpt: The Franks Report is a unique document from an unimpeachable source. No British official publication this century has disclosed so much so soon of that forbidden realm where the security classification is king- the process of foreign and defence policy-making and the working of the intelligence community. Lord Franks was asked to review the British handling of the Falklands crisis up to the moment of national humiliation - the Argentine invasion of the Islands in 1982. The subject of fierce controversy when it was first published, The Franks Report is a continuing revelation. It is also that rarest of things in official documents - a good read.
