a compilation of top guys' stories

Bouscaren collected info from a number of sources and presented these for the reader to interpret. Sources from all sides of the issues on Vietnam. This is a great book for those of them whom have read only soldiers' accounts of vietnam and shy away from a one view political write up of the whole event. The fact that it was written in 77 (and I read it in 2000) shows that there were some people with a very good grasp of the situation in Vietnam at that time and that a retrospective look is very interesting. The book drives a point home: US foreign policy, it's manifest destiny took a hell of a blow and much will have to be done to redress the situation. This is a great book to read at this time (25 years after the fact), in combination with books on what US policy and the middle east regions are concerned from the 70's to now.
