Review:
`For those interested in learning what goes on behind the scenes of official diplomacy, this slim volume is essential reading'
Victoria Schofield, DAWN

`All in all, the book is definitely worth a read for all students of international diplomacy.'
Murtaza Razvi, The Herald, Dec 2000

`Aijazuddin has quite a bit to tell ... the author has done his bit as a Pakistani by incorporating pertinent details that are relevant to students of Pakistan's tumultuous history in that fateful era which saw the dismemberment of the country.'
Murtaza Razvi, The Herald, Dec 2000

`This volume adds significantly to the literature on [that] crucial phase of history.'
Frontline

`Aijazuddin combines scholarship, erudition and elegance, effortlessly. ... A superb re-telling of General Yahya Khan's greatest moment when he acted as go-between for Nixon's face to face meeting with Chairman Mao ... The author masterfully draws the diferent threads together to form a
tapestry of heads, faces, and conversations ... The book is well written and extensively researched.'
Jeeva Haroun, She Magazine
