Delusions Of A Dictator: The Mind Of Marcos As Revealed In His Secret Diaries. REMPEL, WILLIAM C.
6452X1 First Edition. Little, Brown and Co., Boston: 1993. 245 pages. Hardcover with dustjacket and protective covering. Good condition. Library discard. Ferdinand Marcos was at the pinnacle of his political career, the twice-elected president of a strategically important Asian democracy, when he began one of the most extraordinary documents in modern political life - his presidential diary, a work that would document the fears and fantasies that drove a paranoid, messianic leader to the depths of deceit and treachery and to the height of authoritarian power. William C. Rempel, the first person outside the Aquino govrnment with the access to the historical papers, transforms the diary into a compelling story of a complex man, haunted by superstition and fears of illness and assassination.
