Bertil delivers again
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I purchased this book a while ago based on Bertil Lintner's past excellent books. This guy researches his topics to death and knows Asia and Asia's underworld like no one else. I was really surprised that no one else has reviewed this hidden gem of a book Highly recommended if you want to know what is really happening in this volitile country. Also check out Bertil Linter's other books or articles.
