Media Reviews
A detailed expose of the evil incarnate in Duvalier's rule.... Shakedowns of foreign businessmen, and their governments, are shown to be commonplace.... Torture... sometimes directed by the dictator himself... emerges as the cement to hold the police state together.... The frustrating counterpoint to this terror story is the tale of how Duvalier has undone United States policy and humiliated Washington.” - Washington Post
"A truly revealing book." - St. Louis Post-Dispatch
