What I knew about him I gleaned as a high school student from watching late night comedy shows featuring quips about Mrs. Marcos (Imelda) and her vast collection of shoes. Cue the applause sign. In my twenties, I got a chance to visit the Philippines and thought I'd bone up on that frequently overlooked country, and that is how I stumbled on this book. There wasn't much applauding. Nor did I laugh. Not even once.The rise and fall of the Marcos dynasty is a fascinating tale; a jaw-dropping account of how incredibly - nay, impossibly - black and deceptive the human heart can be. After coming to power illegaly, Marcos and his entourage of cronies and sycophants spent two decades robbing the struggling Pacific republic absolutely blind. During his reign, the Philippines became a major international player in just about every illicit activity under the sun, i.e. drug running, illegal arms sales, and especially child prostitution. While the underground economy boomed everything else simply ground to a halt and the people languished in poverty and even starvation. Riding on the back of the misery, authoritarianism, and insitutionalized corruption that he helped engender, Ferdinand Marcos became - wait for it - the richest man in all of Asia. Think about that for a moment. And here's the kicker: the US government was his biggest supporter. Indeed, the US would have courted the devil himself in order to garner "moral" and military support for Vietnam and with Marcos they came darned close.Seagrave is an adept narrator and and an expert researcher. From Marcos's rise as a Japanese collaborator to his expulsion under People Power, the author takes us on a dizzying if not mind boggling adventure. This is an excellent read.Troy Parfitt, author ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Just now finally recieved it. *by J***. on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 24, 2021* Through no fault of the seller I just noe today recieved the book. Doesn't matter really anyway I don't have time to read now anyway. I will say the book is in great condition and I am happy to have it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Greed knows no bounds! *by S***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 23, 2019* Very enlightening about corruption levels in the Philippines, United States, Japan, China. Wealth, deception and manipulation beyond my imagination. A bit dry here and there but full of information you couldn't dream up if you tried. After this, I'll surely doubt every news story I hear! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/41262338-the-marcos-dynasty](https://www.desertcart.in/products/41262338-the-marcos-dynasty) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-05-08*
