The Secret War History

A military analyst had helped write a secret government history of a long and unpopular war. He copied thousands of pages of it and passed them to newspapers, which printed them. He was charged with stealing government documents and handing them to people not entitled to have them. He does not deny copying them; he says the public had a right to know. During the trial it emerged that White House men had broken into his psychiatrist's office and that he had been wiretapped.
