Russ Baker observes that "the true power wielded by the duo of Prescott Bush and Neil Mallon is revealed in a round of correspondence where the two virtually demanded a high-level Washington job for a friend:the oilman and advnturer Tom Slick... Loren Coleman an anthropologist and retired professor who wrote two books on Slick, asserts that the explorer was actually a longtim CIA operative who used his adventure travel as cover for his spy work." [1]

Death

On October 6, 1962, Slick was returning from a Canadian hunting trip when his airplane crashed in Montana. Reportedly, the aircraft disintegrated in flight.[2]
