About This Item
Hyperion, 2002. 2nd Printing. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. Book is inscribed and dated by author. Book is clean with a square, tight binding and bright, white pages. Book has minor wear on the edges, includes a bumped spine, that is difficult to see in the scans. For the first time, Wen Ho Lee speaks out: about his work at Los Alamos and his experiences with the FBI, about his arrest and imprisonment. In January of 1999, the arrest of Wen Ho Lee, the Los Alamos scientist who was falsely accused of espionage by the U.S. government and imprisoned without trial, sparked controversy throughout the country. Throughout the ordeal, Wen Ho Lee quietly and steadfastly maintained his innocence. Now he tells his story. A riveting account about prejudice, fear, suspicion and courage, My Country Versus Me offers at last a clear and truthful look at one of the great miscarriages of justice of our time. The book you see in the images is the actual book we have for sale. Why pay more? When you buy this book from us, you are helping to support a small brick and mortar family owned store.
