Book excerpt: At the same time the Vietnam War was being broadcast into the living rooms of Americans across the country the CIA was conducting a large-scale secret war in northeastern Laos that few heard about.

His dramatic, provocative reminiscence of those years is the first account by a participant to portray America's involvement in Laos.
