Book Description
Pham Xuan An was a Vietnamese nationalist and member of Ho Chi Minh's army in the 1950s. Knowing that war with the United States was inevitable, the Party sent An to America to study journalism (for his cover) and observe its people and culture. He attended community college in California, worked for the Sacramento Bee and traveled across the country making friends.
Back in Saigon he worked as a reporter for Reuters and Time in the early 60s. He befriended numerous British and American journalists, including David Halberstam, Neil Sheehan and Stanley Karnow who came to regard him as a friend and trusted source. Meanwhile, he was providing intelligence to Hanoi; his early reports were so accurate that a general joked "we are now in the US war room." For twenty years An lived a lie and no one knew because he was so good at his day job, which was interwoven with his assignment in espionage.
Several years after the war, the new Vietnamese Communist government revealed that An had been one of its most effective spies. He was publicly awarded six medals and named a "Hero of the People's Army" – one of only two intelligence officers during the war ever promoted to the rank of General and Hero. But An's disaffection with the new government's treatment of their southern countrymen and his close friendships with Americans made him suspicious in the eyes of the Communist government. He was soon placed under housed arrest and to this day he is banned from leaving the country.

You Cannot Have it Both Ways.......2007-10-01
I might not be as forgiving as some people, but I certainly would have felt betrayed by this man. He seeks to justify everything by stating that he felt the Americans did not belong in Vietnam. Maybe so. But what he did was so deceiful.To just look at the fact that he often helped those closest and known to him from suffering any harm, neglects the hundreds of thousands who died and were wounded as a result of his actions. To top it all off he sent his family to the US when the Communists came !! No doubt for a better life !!This fellow must have been of fairly limited intellect , or at least uneducated.And don't tell me was educated in the US - they let him do some courses... big deal! Did he really believe the Americans would attempt to rule Vietnam the way the French did ? Yes, they would take advantage of economic opportunities ( who does'nt), but what did he think they would have done if the South succeeded ? A good insight into blind nationalism and deceit by one of the most two faced people I have ever encountered. I still cannot understand his mindset.
the worst book to read! just a waste of time........2007-09-18
This book is nothing but full of communist propaganda. To most of the Vietnamese people, I say not including the 2% of the communist population, An is a betrayer. Don't waste your time being brain-washed by communist ideology.
Interesting, and Eerie!.......2007-09-09
Pham Xuan An was recruited by the Communist Party in Vietnam and sent to the U.S. in 1957 to learn journalism as a cover - long before the U.S. took a major role in the conflict. An quickly came to admire the U.S., did well in his studies (Orange Coast College) and internships, and was had several attractive offers for permanent work upon their completion. Yet, despite fear that he would be arrested by the South Vietnamese government upon returning to Vietnam, An returned, first reporting French troop actions, then also working for various government military figures (eg. teaching English to future VN spies; helping set up the Vietnamese spying service), and finally for various American publications - Time magazine in particular. Several times the CIA even tried to recruit An, with no success.
Early in his career An risked exposure to save the life of a Time reporter captured by the VietCong in Cambodia because he knew the reporter had saved a number of Vietnamese children's' lives from various Cambodian army massacres. This conflict between his spy role and friendship with Americans continued up to America's last day in Saigon when An helped a Vietnamese friend who had worked for the Americans escape. These actions, however, did not dull An's effectiveness - his insights and reports based on conversations and documents played key roles in VietCong/NVA tactics and strategy development. After the war ended, An was promoted to Maj. General, and collected his ten top-level medals.
An received no formal spy training - instead, he read a number of books by others who were past masters. Communications involving An were almost entirely one-way - towards nearby VietCong and much farther away NVA leaders in Hanoi. His methods were to use melted rice as invisible ink (revealed by pouring iodine over the paper), and secreting both the paper and film rolls in food materials handed off to a vendor.
An's career spanned 30 years - longer than any other spy. Consequently, after the war there was considerable suspicion by the communists that this was due to his having played both sides. He was even forbidden from leaving VN to attend a post-war correspondent's conference in NYC.
Some of the most impactful portions of "Perfect Spy" involved stories about eg. another VietCong spy who pushed the Vietnamese government to move peasants into more defensible self-contained villages. His rationale - he knew this would greatly upset the peasants and turn them against the government. An himself declared several times that the U.S.'s biggest failure was to develop a new cadre of leaders after Diem was deposed. It was also quite jarring to read details from the "other side" about so many areas that I had been to - Nha Trang, Siagon, Ban Me Thuot, Pleiku, Vung Tau, Khe Sanh.
My one wish is that "Perfect Spy" included more planning details from the VietCong and NVA side. Unfortunately, even the author (Larry Berman) sensed several times that An left much more unsaid than revealed.
Bottom Line: I was taken aback by An's working against the U.S. after having made so many friends here, how well the VietCong/NVA infiltrated U.S. planning, and how long ahead their thinking ran. The book also brings an eerie sense of wondering what is happening along these same lines now in Iraq.
Just another Communist propaganda book.......2007-07-23
It was a good read, but it just followed the line of typical Communist propaganda.
It is laughable for anyone to think An spied for his "country", that he was a "patriot", or a "nationalist" for that matter. An was a Communist through and through. Communist propaganda and the book want you to think that the Vietnam war was about fighting off foreign invaders/aggressors.
Make no mistake. An and his comrades fought for one sole purpose: put the entire country of Vietnam under Communism, and strip the Vietnamese people of freedom and basic human rights.
Hanoi successfully exploited the American involvement to justify their aggression in South Vietnam, and masked their communist proliferation campaign under a "patriotic" theme: war against foreign invaders.
It was Communist activities in South Vietnam that brought in US soldiers, and they made it looked like the American invasion of Vietnam that forced them to start the war to save the country.
An was lying when he implied that he didn't know how bad the Communists were when they took over the country. He fought for a regime that killed hundreds of thousands of innocent land-owners in North Vietnam in the late 50's during the bloody land reform campaign. He fought for a system with outdated economic (communism) theories that turned Vietnam into one of the poorest countries in the world. He fought for a totalitarian state that took away the people's basic freedom and human rights, where free-thinking was not allowed. If An had any doubt during his spying days, he just had to look to the iron curtains of the Soviet Union, China, North Korea, Cuba, East Germany, ... where the people were oppressed, and all would leave if they had a chance.
As well informed as he was, An surely must have known how brutal the Communists were, and still chose to be on their side. Instead of helping to promote freedom in Vietnam, he worked hard to crush it. If An was truly disillusioned after the war, then he was a fool to fight for a system that he knew nothing about.
I am shocked and appalled that many freedom-loving Americans failed to see this, and continued to think of An as a patriot, a nationalist, and that they would probably do the same if they were An. Naive Americans.
Also, the book repeatedly mentioned An's American acquaintances admired him for being a spy without injecting any pro-communist ideas onto them. Are you kidding? That's what he was supposed to do to keep his cover. To this day, many Americans still love this guy and be fooled by his deceiving charm, buying into his Communist propaganda line that he was just fighting foreign invaders to save his country. Naive Americans.
An was responsible for thousands of American and hundreds of thousands of South Vietnamese deaths during the war. After the war, tens (if not hundreds) of thousands more died in re-education camps, or during their escape journey from Vietnam.
Unification without freedom is worst than death. To this point, An helped kill his fellow Vietnamese and the country. He was a traitor!
A great read, a great man for his country and a sad commentary of our press corps.......2007-06-15
As a former Marine sniper with two straight years in the Vietnam War, the early part, I couldnt pass this book up. An, the spy, is the perfect spy and by the end of the book you can see he duped our press, his 'friends', not only in Vietnam during the war, but all the way to his recent death. He certainly played a central part in the demise of our strategy and as one soldier to another, my hat goes off to him. He was good at what he did and so were my fellow Marines and I. He fought for his country in his way and we in ours. An incredible man.
Now for my disdain. The author did an excellent job researching and writing this book. Except for his bias to continue to make the North Vietnamese out the good guys and us the bad. I understand they fought for 'their He continues to this day, forty years later for me, to herald the very pr' country and to get foreigners off their soil. But this author contuess corp that were hopefully duped by An, some probably not. They continues the US press corps position that the people in the south had no right to their way of wanting their country back. The author supports the media in their current dismantling of US efforts in Iraq. I do not believe we should have gone to Iraq, but now that we unraveled their lives, we owe it to them to see it to the end. Yet just as it outlined well in this excellent book, they are undermining US efforts to help a people who strive for freedom like the millions of South Vietnamese that are barely mentioned in this work.
This is an important work on the Vietnam War, which I have studied for my forty years since being there. It tells a compelling story of a proud warrior who did what he had to do for his country. He did it well. And it shows the dispicable US media, lead by Time magazine, and their work which ended up aiding our enemy at the time.
And then they proudly, according to the author, pull out all the stops to bring the son of this perfect spy, back to the US to educate him as we did his father. He continued perfect to the end and his great friends in the media still believe his line. We just never learn.

Book Description
John le Carré's classic novels deftly navigate readers through the intricate shadow worlds of international espionage with unsurpassed skill and knowledge, and have earned him unprecedented worldwide acclaim.
Immersing readers in two parallel dramas -- one about the making of a spy, the other chronicling his seemingly imminent demise -- le Carré offers one of his richest and most morally resonant novels.
Magnus Pym -- son of Rick, father of Tom, and a successful career officer of British Intelligence -- has vanished, to the dismay of his friends, enemies, and wife. Who is he? Who was he? Who owns him? Who trained him? Secrets of state are at risk. As the truth about Pym gradually emerges, the reader joins Pym's pursuers to explore the unsettling life and motives of a man who fought the wars he inherited with the only weapons he knew, and so became a perfect spy.

Not Free SF Reader.......2007-09-03
A veteran spy named Magnus Pym disappears. A lot of his former co-workers are pretty stressed about this, because they think it is pretty strong evidence that he has been a long time double agent.
The novel is mostly told in the form of memoirs, particularly from his father, among others.
He has to be tracked down to find out what has happened, and why.
A Perfect Spy - a fractured soul.......2007-08-31
I listened to this as an audiobook read by John LeCarre. Mr Le Carre's narration added enormously to my understanding and enjoyment of this novel.
Magnus Pym's story is told in a memoir format and involves multiple narrators in addition to Pym himself. I suspect I would have found this format more difficult to follow in a written form but the author himself is able to navigate and narrate these multiple voices effortlessly. The memoir is intended for Pym's son Tom, and traces Pym's rise and fall.
This is not, in my view, a traditional 'spy' novel. It is far more complex than that. The actions taken by Pym are only part of the story: the influences on Pym and his quite complex motivations are far nore interesting and intriguing.
I recommend this book (or audiobook) to anyone who is looking for a layer of psychological complexity to the traditional spy novel.

Difficult to Read and Low Engagement Spy Novel.......2006-08-23
This is a spy novel focused primarily on the development of characters--primarily two college-aged students who later become spies and the father of one. If you are expecting an engaging novel with lots of intrigue and interesting twists, this is not that kind of novel. There are less than a handful of books that I have started and not completed, yet by page 175, I was seriously considering abadoning it entirely as my interest had not been engaged. The author does a good job of character development, demonstrating some of the complexities in actions and feelings that those employed in the spy trade might encounter. The writing jumps regularly between different narrators, locations, and time periods with, as you might expect from spies, characters have multiple names. Thus, it can be challenging to follow the story. There also seems to be a lot of unnecessary descriptions. While clearly other reviewers liked this book, I read a lot and would say this was one of the least enjoyable books I've read in a while.
A Tangle of Loyalties.......2006-07-27
Every once and a while one reads a work of fiction that transcends the conventional to such an extent that words of praise fail to do it justice. John Le Carre's "A Perfect Spy" is one of these.
The character of Magnus Pym, the narrator, is beautifully delineated. The author, in fact, depicts an anatomy of betrayal, as he draws us, his readers, inexorably into his antihero's tangled thoughts. Consequently, we experience the alternating intensity and detachment of Pym's emotions as the narrative switches--sometimes in mid-sentence--from first to third person.
In the introduction, Le Carre confesses that he has based the characters of Magnus Pym and his con-man father, Rick, on events of his own life. This, and the fact that the author, as is well known, is a former officer in the British Secret Intelligence Service (not, however, a double agent), is undoubtedly a reason why the narrative rings so true.
Magnus Pym seems to embody Everyspy. The novel could, in fact, as easily have been based upon the life of Kim Philby, Cambridge graduate and Soviet mole in SIS during WWII and the beginning of the Cold War. Also the son of a dodgy father, who was interned for a year by the British at the beginning of the Second World War, Kim Philby--like Magnus Pym--was all things to all men, both British and Soviet. Like Pym, Philby experienced the conflicts of loyalties and crises of emotion that constitute occupational hazards in the life of a double agent. Unlike Pym, however (undoubtedly to the regret of British Intelligence), Philby did not resolve his dilemma to the satisfaction of most of the parties concerned.
In praising this book, it is so easy to fall into platitudes, which cannot begin to capture the engrossing power of "A Perfect Spy,"a novel that is guaranteed to enthrall the discerning reader from the first page until the last.
"A Perfect Spy," in the same sense as "A Perfect Storm" .......2006-07-08
Le Carre's earlier novels hint that a mole has infiltrated the British Intelligence community. Here, the mole goes to ground and ignites Le Carre's great mole hunt. Jack Brotherhood (perfectly named) tries to find the mole to save him from himself and determine the damage he's done. This is one of the last of Le Carre's traditional spy novels, in which spies from the great hegemons spy against each other. It's also one of the great character and cultural studies in modern literature.
Magnus Pym is a fractured soul. Fractured souls make the best spies because they can be anything to anybody, depending on what is needed at the moment. Running agents and maintaining one's cover requires one to be a perfect chameleon. However, because fractured souls have no true core of identity, they make the most dangerous spies because you can never tell whose side they are really on. They have no true colors. This is one of the great paradoxes of the old spy trade. Le Carre delves into Magnus Pym's fractured soul and examines his origins as one of the best double agents in literature. In doing so, he examines what it means to be human and to have a soul.

My First Jodi Thomas Book To Read.......2006-03-23
Jodi writes so that the reader sees, hears and smells the plot. I really liked this book and shall now read the second in the series. I really enjoyed Carter and Bailee's story.
GOOOOOD but!.......2006-01-11

I found the book to be real funny, witty and fun....NOW WHERE THE BUT COMES IN the build up to the sex i mean i wish it was longer like seriously the man works so hard he should get a longer sex description being it's towards the end, but thus the ending great I mean carter is the most sweetest heros that you can read about.

Everybody has a different opinion when writting a review if we all had the same reviews or opinions it would be boring. Reviews can sometimes down play a really good book or up play a really bad book its up to us to read the book and judge for ourselfs and draw our own conclusion thats the best thing about a review its like a silent debate....
Oh, What Wonderful Possibilities........2005-11-11
A Jodi Thomas book usually guarantees the reader a gentle Western. THE TEXAN'S WAGER delivers on that promise. It is gentle, it is a Western, and it is frustrating . . . and it started with so much promise . . .
Three women are in a hopeless predicament. Their wagon train cast them out! Three helpless women, in the middle of nowhere, who come upon a repugnant, evil man. In self-defense, they club him and leave him, lying in the blood soaked mud. When they arrive in Cedar Point, Texas, all three women confess to the murder. Yet, the sheriff cannot find a body and he cannot let them go. Therefore, the crafty old man holds a "wife lottery" for the town. Why, because Cedar Point, Texas needs women!
Bailee Grace Moore has nowhere to go. Her father asked her to leave his house, her fiancé left town without her, and now Bailee Moore is a confessed murderer. What other options does she have? Life in prison? Hanging? Carter McKoy is an interesting alternative.
Carter McKoy is the town recluse. People call him the dummy's son. He never speaks and he never socializes! When he was a lad, thieves murdered his parents and Carter was alone with the bodies, for days. That entire experience caused him to grow into an emotionally scarred man.
When it is her turn, Bailee draws from the lottery hat and reads Carter's name. He pays her jail fine and they are married. Immediately, Carter's strange behavior takes Bailee back; obviously, he is different from most men. Yet she realizes he is gentle, intelligent, and willing, but his experiences as a child and his remote lifestyle continue to haunt him. Carter cannot relate to people, let alone a wife. He knows the world only through his books.
And this is where Jodi Thomas should have kept her story . . . focusing on the growing relationship between Bailee and Carter. I think then THE TEXAN'S WAGER would have been a winner. Ms. Thomas has the unique gift to write a gentle, tender love story. Here she elected to introduce and run with several subplots, and her story slipped away. What a shame, because as a couple, Bailee and Carter had great potential . . . as they explored, discovered and grew together. Such an uncovering would have distinguished Thomas' idea. Nevertheless, it did not happen. Still, Jodi Thomas remains a golden author, her tender stories usually draw around an unusual source and THE TEXAN'S WAGER is true to that format. However, it had such wonderful possibilities.
Grade: C+

Great start to this trilogy..........2004-12-05
I really enjoyed this book. Bailee & Carter are both virgins & don't have much clue on love or romance. It's fun watching them discover each other as well as themselves. Carter is not your typical hero. From the beginning he is very shy & quite but it plays into the story very well. You may see him as a weak person when he gets beat up a couple times but I still liked him. Bailee is a little bossy but if I were in her shoes I'd have to set some ground rules also. I highly recommend this book & can't wait to read the next.
A very enjoyable historical romance.......2003-12-09
THE TEXAN'S WAGER by Jodi Thomas
Jodi Thomas' THE TEXAN'S WAGER is the first book in a trilogy of books that take place in - you guessed it - Texas. These three historical romances take place in the state of Texas during the 1800's, when life was still rough and wild and civilization was considered to be back East.
In this story, the reader is introduced to three strong women, Sarah, Lacy, and Bailee, who are abandoned by their wagon train and left to die because of prejudice, fear and ignorance among the rest of the settlers. The three make it back to a populated part of Texas, but along the way they murder a man to defend their lives. Because of this they are given two choices - go to jail, or be auctioned off to three lucky men who are looking for wives in a land nearly void of eligible women. Women, besides those that work in the saloons, are far from being plentiful in this part of the country, and it seems that nearly all the single men in the town of Cedar Point are in line to find them a wife.
It doesn't take long for the three women to find new husbands. Sarah disappears with her husband, and her story is continued in the second part of this trilogy. Lacy's husband is away at war, so she goes with her future father-in-law to help him take care of the family business. Bailee's new husband is a man named Carter McKoy, who is known by the town to be a very strange and different sort of man. Carter rarely ever speaks a word, and as Bailee struggles to get to know her new husband, she learns why he is a man of no words.
The women's troubles are not over. They soon find out that their lives are in danger when word is out that the man they thought they had murdered, Zeb Whittaker, is still alive and is on the warpath. No one crosses him, especially a woman. At the same time, Bailee and Carter take in an orphan child named Piper, and their lives are now complicated even more, with the child being witness to a train robbery and being the only survivor, her life is now in danger as well.
The plot lines sound a bit convoluted, but Jodi Thomas does a good job at making the story as believable as one could make it. She also does a good job at creating such well-developed characters, which adds to the story's believability. I was very impressed with this book and found it a surprisingly enjoyable one. For those fans of historical romances, I highly recommend THE TEXAN'S WAGER. I plan on reading the rest of this trilogy and will look forward to new books by Jodi Thomas.
Product Description
From Publishers Weekly: Two emotionally scarred people find love in this fast-paced Western from Thomas (To Wed in Texas, etc.). When Bailee Moore and her two female companions are voted off a wagon train, they reluctantly make their way to Texas, where they are accosted by a wild, smelly man set on stealing their wagon. The three women bash the brute over the head and promptly turn themselves in to the nearest sheriff, convinced they've committed murder. Instead of sending them away to be hanged, however, Cedar Point's wily sheriff devises a marriage lottery, in which the women are raffled off and married to men willing to pay their prison fines. Carter McKoy, a silent recluse with a tragic past, draws Bailee's name, and though she deplores her lot, she quickly warms to him. The first half of the novel ambles leisurely along as Bailee and Carter come to know one another, but the pace picks up abruptly when Bailee learns the man she allegedly killed is alive and eager for revenge. Though the intrigue subplot fleshes out Carter's character and allows for some compelling cowboy action (complete with fistfights and bullet-dodging heroics), it detracts from the real drama between Bailee and Carter. Thomas's crisp prose, sprightly dialogue and homespun characters will charm most readers, but some may be left puzzling over the novel's loose ends.Copyright 2002 Reed Business Information, Inc.
