IDEAL MAN, THE: THE TRAGEDY OF JIM THOMPSON AND THE AMERICAN WAY OF WAR

How the West's greatest spy in Asia tried to stop the new American way of war—and the steep price he paid for failing.
Jim Thompson landed in Thailand at the end of World War II, a former American society dilettante who became an Asian legend as a spy and silk magnate with access to Thai worlds outsiders never saw. As the Cold War reached Thailand, America had a choice: Should it, as Thompson believed, help other nations build democracies from their traditional cultures or, as his ex-OSS friend Willis Bird argued, remake the world through deception and self-serving alliances? In a story rich with insights and intrigue, this book explores a key Cold War episode that is still playing out today.
