Many tens of thousands of copies of Sarkhan were in the bookstores
on publication day. Suddenly it seemed to vanish. Mr. Lederer and
the late Mr. Burdick were convinced that the book had been
suppressed by agencies of the government, and certainly it contains
much that might make such agencies unhappy. In a highly dramatic
narrative, it tells of blundering by our intelligence community in
Southeast Asia, of error and incompetence as well as heroics by
Americans who understood Asia. Today, brought back to life after
twelve years in limbo, ironically retitled The Deceptive American,
and given a new, explanatory introduction, it is still relevant.
The prescience of its message has been proved by events. The drama
of its people and the drive of its narrative are undiminished."
