Lyle Munson
US intelligence agent, anti-communist and book publisher
Lyle Hugh Munson[1] (?- c. 1974)[2] was an intelligence agent[3] and then, later, a book publisher and distributor under the corporate name Bookmailer, Inc.. Based in the New York area, his company was known particularly for offering anti-communist works.
Robert W. Welch Jr., the head of the John Birch Society, considered him a "good friend".[4] Munson's advice to the Austrian economist Ludwig von Mises for the author to threaten Yale University Press to take Human Action to another publisher because of delays caused it to rush out its flawed second edition.[5]
