Its been completely ignored. And I can understand why. It takes up where the all important JFK:Ordeal in Africa leaves off.
Try and imagine Ike, Nixon or LBJ doing anything like what is outlined in this book for the Third World.
I've heard that there are remote villages in Africa where people still have photos of JFK inside their huts.
