What makes the book particularly valuable is the author's revealing interviews with many of the central players of the non-Communist opposition and their foreign patrons. The Cambodian Wars is likely to be the most important book on the non-Communist resistance of the 1980s for a long time to come. -- Journal of Cold War Studies

Decades in the making, The Cambodian Wars provides a fascinating look into the netherworld of intrigue, betrayal, and tragedy that marked Cambodia from the 1950s to the 1990s. Along the way it lifts the veil on CIA activities in the region. . . . Will likely be this generation's definitive study of Cambodia's wars. --Kenton Clymer, author of Troubled Relations: The United States and Cambodia since 1870 A riveting, brilliantly researched, and invaluable contribution to our understanding of this benighted land. --Frank Snepp, author of Decent Interval: An Insider's Account of Saigon's Indecent End Told by the CIA's Chief Strategy Analyst in Vietnam
