Sandwiched between US-supported Thailand and Communist North Vietnam, the tranquil Buddhist Kingdom of Laos--the original Shangri-La--became the center of a major Cold War crisis in the early sixties, when Mervyn Brown served there as deputy to the British Ambassador. He has written a fascinating and highly readable account of his often hazardous experiences, which included the battle of Vientiane passing through his garden and a grueling month as prisoner of left-wing Pathet Lao guerrillas in remote mountainous jungle inhabited by Stone Age aboriginal people. His story is set against a detailed account of the developing political and military crisis. It reveals the tensions that developed in the US between the newly elected President Kennedy, his Secretary of State Dean Rusk, and their advisors in the State Department, the CIA, and the Pentagon while a regional policy was formulated in the face of the perceived communist threat.

In the mist-shrouded mountains of Laos, a war raged for nearly fifteen years that few Americans knew existed. While the world's attention focused on the battlefields of Vietnam, a parallel conflict unfolded in the shadows of Southeast Asia, involving secret armies, clandestine air operations, and a level of bombing that would make Laos the most heavily bombed country per capita in human history. This was the Secret War in Laos, a forgotten chapter of the Cold War that would profoundly shape the region and leave scars that remain visible today. The origins of this clandestine conflict can be traced back to the complex geopolitical landscape that emerged following World War II. As European colonial powers retreated from Southeast Asia, newly independent nations found themselves caught between competing ideologies and superpowers. Laos, a landlocked kingdom nestled between Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, China, and Burma, became a crucial battleground in this larger struggle between communist and capitalist forces. The Geneva Accords of 1954, which ended French colonial rule in Indochina, had specifically declared Laos a neutral nation. This neutrality, however, proved to be more theoretical than practical. The Ho Chi Minh Trail, North Vietnam's vital supply route to communist forces in South Vietnam, snaked through eastern Laos, making the country strategically essential to the broader Vietnam conflict. The communist Pathet Lao, backed by North Vietnam and the Soviet Union, controlled significant portions of the country's territory, while the Royal Lao Government struggled to maintain authority over its own domain.
