'Transitions to Democracy'
When Fowler (Caine) first meets Pyle (Fraser) in the hotel cafe, the latter is reding a book that looks on my modest television screen to be "Transitions to Democracy." I've looked in Amazon and could not easily find the reference, though there is an abundance of later-published sources with variations of this title. The way it is conspicuously flouted in this scene leads me to believe that this is a seminal source in anticipation of the United States's ideological embrace of the conflict in the 1950's, before our "covert" involvement became "overt." Does anybody know this source?
