The story of the splendid young Americans who have kept alive the work of the great Tom Dooley. With a foreword by Malcolm W. Dooley. BOOK NUMBER: A3309. JACKET PHOTO COURTESY OF: The Thomas A. Dooley Foundation, Inc. CONTENTS: Foreword by Malcolm W. Dooley; I. Chaney; II. On the Other Side of Greenwich Village; III. Quang Ngai; IV. Ban Houei Sai; V. Khong Island; VI. What Can One Person Do?; VII. The Purdys; VIII. The Splendid Americans; IX. To Sail a Dark River; Illustrations following page 112. SYNOPSIS: With Tom Dooley's tragic death in 1961, his relief operations in Asia seemed doomed. But a handful of his associates determined that his vision and compassion would live on. Under Dr. Verne Chaney, they founded the Thomas A. Dooley Foundation to provide the personal devotion to the poor and sick that Dr. Dooley had given so lovingly during his lifetime. This is the story of the men and women who breathed life into TADF: Al Harris, who found his own identity helping the helpless in Asian hospitals and became administrative field director in Laos; Dr. Carl Wiedermann, a German refugee, who sought tragically to give more of himself than there was to give to the Ban Houei Sai hospital; Margaret Alberding, who founded a mid-wifery school in Laos so that babies and mothers might live; Marleane Thompson, the first of many stewardesses to give their vacations to help Tibetan refugees in India; and the other dedicated men and women who have kept Tom Dooley's dream alive in Laos, Vietnam, Thailand, Nepal, and India. Author Lawrence Elliott spent months tracing the footsteps of Tom Dooley in Asia, talking to dozens of volunteers whose stories fill this book. He tells of their successes and failures, their valor, their dedication to the credo that the strong are obliged to help the weak, and their part in the fulfillment of the enduring Legacy of Tom Dooley. Lawrence Elliott was born in Brooklyn and is a graduate of the City College of New York. He began writing professionally twenty years ago. Although he has contributed to a wide range of magazines, he has been most closely associated with the Reader's Digest and, since 1959, has written some forty articles for them. From 1960 until last year, he covered Alaska and western Canada for the Digest and is currently assigned to their European Editorial Office in Paris. Mr. Elliott has three young daughters and is an avid collection of modern American first editions. His other books are A Little Girls' Gift (1963); George Washington Carver: The Man Who Overcame (1966); On the Edge of Nowhere (with James Huntington, 1966); and Journey to Washington (with Senator Daniel K. Inouye, 1967). Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Ex-Library.

Illustrated with black-and-white photographic plates and illustrated family tree front and rear endpapers. Book Club Edition. "The underworld lives by performing the services which convention may condemn and the law prohibit, but which, nevertheless, human appetites crave." - Walter Lippman from the inner front jacket flap. "The Mafia - the most discussed, least understood subject in America - is a syndicate of approximately 5,000 men belonging to twenty-four separate "families" located in major cities in every region of the United States. Since the Prohibition era, it has specialized in providing those illegal commodities which, in Lippmann's words, human appetites crave. It is a risky business tat best. Sidewalks have been littered with bodies because of "misunderstandings" between mafiosi. Yet, since the survivors in Mafia society are most often as quite as the corpses, there has never been a factual account of the Mafia world from the inside: what their homes look like, what they say to their wives, what they tell their children about themselves, what their children come to know without being told. But the "inside" book that has so far eluded other writers has now been written - by Gay Talese. In this monumental work-packed with fascinating, intimate details and brilliant reporting and written in the style of a novel - Talese portrays the secret society as they - and he - have lived it in the six years he traveled with the individuals who have so dominated the crime charts of crime-busting senators. The book begins on a rainy Tuesday night in October 1964 when, on Park Avenue in New York, the famous Mafia chieftain Joseph Bonanno - whose rather in Sicily was a "man of respect" and whose college-educated son was his top lieutenant - was kidnapped by two mobsters and reported by the police as dead on the following morning. Eighteen months (and several corpses) later Joseph Bonanno reappeared as strangely as he had disappeared, setting off a Mafia feud that came to be known as the Banana War. Talese covers the Banana War in intimate detail. The reader gets extraordinary glimpses of men on the run, of "hits" and "misses," and, later, the wives and children and other members of a society that readers of The Godfather know in fictional terms. But Talese's book is fact. And in this case fact is more fantastic than fiction." - excerpt from the front and rear jacket flaps.
