Publisher's Summary

Chris Datta is a colleague, friend, and personal hero of mine. As a fellow foreign service officer, I've done some hard jobs, but nothing compared to Chris' service in the toughest, most dangerous places on earth. 

Chris tells the story of one American FSO who believed in serving his country in very foreign lands. From the hilariously morbid bureaucracy of South India to the blood-soaked streets of Rwanda, to civil war in Liberia, and to the creation of a new country in South Sudan, this memoir should make us all shake our heads with wonder and pride at the sacrifices our diplomats make for America. 

Thank you, Chris, for telling our story so well. Ambassador (Ret.) Tom Krajeski.
