Title: Fascinating, crucial history
Review: The real story of Sukarno's reign in Indonesia has been largely forgotten in the West, but I for one continue to be interested in the 1965 military coup, as I don't think any book I've yet read has got to the bottom of that tangled plot. "Feet to the Fire" covers the CIA's efforts in 1957-58 to exert pressure on Sukarno by supporting rebels in Sumatra -- "supporting" seems too mild a word when virtually the only casualties inflicted came as a result of American air-power, which was, under Allen Dulles, meant to be deniable but was not. An American pilot was shot down, kept prisoner until 1962. The history recounted here starts slowly, as perhaps a few too many Indonesian names are thrown at the reader early on, but things clear up fairly soon, and the story really does become quite gripping. And this is history that has never before been revealed! Some of the notes are worth pursuing in the back, also, by the way.
