8vo-over 7?"-9?" tall. 464 pages, illustrated. "The fabled Golden Triangle, where Laos, Thailand, and Burma meet, long a traditional opium-growing area, now provides 70 percent of the world's illicit supply of heroin. And many elements in the governments of these countries, and in the government of South Vietnam, most of which are supported by U.S. military and financial aid-are deeply (and lucratively) involved in the growing, processing, transport and distribution of narcotics. Based on firsthand research in Asia and Europe, the authors trace the whole story since the end of World War II." FINE-HARDCOVER, GOOD DUST JACKET.[less]
