My War with the CIA chronicles the royal statesman's determined efforts to navigate Cambodia through the treacherous currents of superpower rivalry, detailing alleged CIA-backed plots, coup attempts, and systematic interference in Cambodian affairs during the 1960s and early 1970s — all told with the authority of a man who lived every moment of it.\n\nRendered in vivid detail through the skilled pen of veteran war correspondent Wilfred Burchett, the narrative carries the weight of a political memoir and the urgency of a diplomatic exposé. Sihanouk's voice — defiant, impassioned, and uncompromising — illustrates the immense personal and political cost of asserting national neutrality in an era when the world was divided into two hostile camps. For those who seek to understand the roots of Cambodia's tragic twentieth-century history, this account remains an indispensable and provocative document that raises questions about power, sovereignty, and imperial ambition that echo far beyond the jungles of Indochina.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49342767988955,"sku":"2026100008672-SECONDHAND","price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/f1b4f57b-b51b-4fbd-bc68-7710f9dc4720.png?v=1790048808","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100008672-secondhand-my-war-with-the-cia-the-memoirs-of-prince-norodom-sihanouk-as-related-to-wilfred-burchett","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
