Subject: Books on National Security Council History

Does anybody know of any good books on the National Security
Council for past presidents. I'm most interested in the
Eisenhower admin, but any book on general NSC history that
might contain such info. would be helpful.

PS: Yes it is for aircraft research.

I came across these few:

>        Prados, John.
>        Keepers of the keys : a history of the National Security
>        Council from Truman to Bush / John Prados. 1st ed.
>        New York : Morrow, c1991.  

>        Smith, Bromley K.
>        Organizational history of the National Security Council
>        during the Kennedy and Johnson administrations / by Bromley K. Smith.
>        [Washington, D.C.?] : National Security Council, [1988?]    

>        Lay, James S.
>        Organizational history of the National Security Council
>        during the Truman and Eisenhower administrations.
>        [Washington, D.C.? : Central Intelligence Agency?, 1988?]  

The last two are organizational histories, but I'll see if I can't find
something more specific.  There are a ton of books dealing with the
National Security Act and all the fun that came out of that...was there
something specific you needed?
