The book was about Burnham's speeches.

Right. And the majority of those speeches were made when Burnham was fiercely anti-communist, anti--Castro etc.

The book became an embarrassment to Burnham when he befriended Castro, the communist Soviet Union, Eastern Europe and Korea's Kim Il Sung. 

So, while Cheddi Jagan's "The West on Trial" was published in more than two editions, Burnham never asked Nascimento to bring out a second edition of  "A Destiny to Mould".

So much so that even today's PPP supporters know about Jagan's book. But go ask young Burnhamites if they know anything about "A Destiny to Mould" and they will most likely stare at you as if you're talking about Barack Obama.
