New York: Macmillan, May 1982. Hardcover. First Edition / full number line. First printing review copy laid-in with publisher's press release. Appears unmarked.

The "Congo cables" are some 2500 other, recently declassified documents--mostly State Department cables--which Kalb utilizes to fill out the story. What is interesting is her observation that the Congolese effort to dispose of Lumumba may have been stepped up… Read More
