    In this episode of Whiskey and a Map, award winning journalist and author Jacques Leslie recounts his years as a war correspondent covering the wars in Vietnam and Cambodia and the Indira Gandhi crises in India.

    At the age of 24, Jacques Leslie became a Los Angeles Times foreign correspondent, and covered the war in Vietnam and Cambodia for two years. For that work he won the Sigma Delta Chi Distinguished Service Award for foreign correspondence and an Overseas Press Club citation. He began writing about environmental issues two decades ago, and won numerous awards including the J. Anthony Lukas Work-in-Progress Award for the “elegant, beautiful prose” of his 2005 book on dams, Deep Water: The Epic Struggle Over Dams, Displaced People, and the Environment. Now a Los Angeles Times contributing opinion writer, he is working on a book about the Klamath River basin on the California-Oregon border.
