This vintage 1958 hardcover book club edition of The Ugly American was written by William J. Lederer and Eugene Burdick. It features "stories of a certain group of Americans in Southeast Asia - their failures and heroism, their humors and passions, their drama in a land of turmoil". This controversial novel caused a sensation in diplomatic circles and had major political implications. The book is in good used condition with some small tears to the edges of the dust jacket - but it is protected with a plastic sleeve and paper backing. There are no torn or marked pages and good overall color quality.
Hardcover, 285 pages
5.5 x 8.5 inches
