I consider the tomes written prior to the year 2000 to be far superior in content and command of the language than recent authors. Just my own particular "bent" I guess.
I have now learned after reading various newsletters during this scamdemic that the Vietnam War was all about the oil reserves our government was hoping to latch onto--NOT about keeping South Vietnam from the dangers of totalitarianism that was North Vietnam. How horrific--to think our sons and daughters bled and died for such an ignoble goal!!
Good book.

My copy is from the early and aging quickly. It's a well told story. I have read a few books about Indochina.
