The Innocent Ambassadors
What begins as a flight to Hawaii in 1956 to see their first grandchild expands to nearly a three-month trip around the world for Wylie and his wife. Among the places they visit are China, Japan, India, Turkey and the Middle East.

Wylie described the trip as "astounding--a journey that informed and appalled me, even in the areas where I thought myself both better informed and more appalled than most of my fellow Americans."

"An intellectually stimulating tour with one of the most persuasive traveling companions you could hope to find." (San Francisco Chronicle)
