Coups, assassinations, riots, car crashes, soldiers in the streets, spying, divine visits, martial law, deaths, arrests, naked festivals - they're all here in the journals of a U.S. Foreign Service Officer, covering his assignments in Korea, Ghana, and Japan in the 1970s and 1980s. To top it all off, he was a gay man, a fact which - if known at the time - would have ended his Foreign Service career.
