Product Overview

A former CIA Far East specialist (now a Bethesda, MD Chinese instructor) provides a first-time insider's view of the civilian employees of the Agency-run Western Enterprises, Inc., whose mission was to divert China's attention from the Korean front in 1950 via guerilla raids. The account concludes with the author revisiting old haunts. Includes photos of American and noted Chinese anti-Communists, and a glossary of intelligence terms. Annotation c.
