Summary
This document is page 6 from the book 'How America Lost Its Secrets' (likely by Edward Jay Epstein), marked with a House Oversight Bates stamp.

The text references General Michael Hayden questioning Snowden's choice of location and mentions Snowden's interactions with journalists Glenn Greenwald and Laura Poitras.
