If you get a chance, read "One Crowded Hour", his biography. He never actually got to write his autobiography (even though he was asked many times) before his untimely death. I read it just after reading Bernard Fall's "Street Without Joy" and it gave his book and his TV documentary more context.

Yeah, thanks mate, I have the book. After 11 years at the pointy in Vietnam, it seems ironic he was killed during another coup in Thailand.
