In 1968 Cambodia was a relatively peaceful and prosperous country. Nixon was elected as U.S. president, and Henry Kissinger became his National Security Assistant. Ten years later Nixon was disgraced, Kissinger celebreated, and Cambodia, generally referred to as a 'sideshow' to the Vietnam war, had been almost obliterated, with hundreds of thousands dead in the Khmer Rouge killing fields. [The author's] book is a horrifying testament to the destruction of a small, neutral country through the violent fanaticism of the communists and the corruption of superpower policy makers.
