Spies, Black Ties, & Mango Pies: Stories and Recipes from CIA Families All over the World - Hardcover
From the Author:
A rare opportunity.
I wrote a few of the stories appearing in "Spies, Black Ties, & Mango Pies". Participating in this project was a wonderful experience. This book provides a rare glimpse of what CIA life overseas is actually like. I hope through these vignettes that readers will appreciate the fact that living and working abroad in an arcane environment is not as glamorous as most novelists would have one believe. Exciting and adventurous?...at times, yes, but these parts are also separated by long periods of everyday routines that fall well short of the life styles we enjoy here in the US. Indeed, as many will see from this book, the authors on many occasions had to use creativity and imagination to make the most of bad situations. I spent many years living overseas and can think of numerous other stories similar to those in this book. I would like to continue on, but who knows...?
