Before the Killing Fields

Witness to Cambodia and the Vietnam War

Leslie Fielding

In the mid-1960s Leslie Fielding was put in charge of the British Embassy in Phnom Penh at a time when Cambodia, not many years after achieving independence from France, found its neutrality threatened by the war in neighbouring Vietnam and Laos. Fielding’s book is both a diplomatic history of the period that was to culminate in the Khmer Rouge genocide and an account of ‘what it is really like to be a diplomat in the field when the chips are down’.
