War in Shangri-la: A Memoir of civil war in Laos

Mervyn Brown - Nama Orang;

Sandwiched between US-supported Thailand and Communist North Vietnam, the tranquil Buddhist kingdom of Laos - the original Shangri-La - became the centre of a major Cold War crisis in the early nineteen-sixties, when Mervyn Brown served there as deputy to the British Ambassador.rnWar in Shangri-La is a fascinating and highly readable account of his often hazardous experiences, which included the battle of Vientiane passing through his garden and a gruelling month as a prisoner of the left-wing Pathet Lao guerrillas in remote mountainous jungle inhabited by Stone Age aboriginal people. His story is set against the political and military crisis that developed in the US administration in the face of the perceived Communist threat in the region.rnYet War in Shangri-La remains a personal chronicle of a remarkable episode as well as a memorable account of Laos and its people.
