by Michael Charlton and Anthony Moncrieff

Book Overview

In this extraordinary oral history, the major American and South Vietnamese participants in the conflict -- George Ball, William Bundy, William Colby, Tran Van Don, Daniel Ellsberg, William Fulbright, Nguyen Cao Ky, Henry Cabot Lodge, Eugene McCarthy, Dean Rusk, Maxwell Taylor, William Westmoreland, and many others too numerous to mention -- tell in their own words the story of America's longest and most tragic war. The result is a major historical document that captures as few works have the scope and complexity of the unfortunate conflict in Vietnam. " . . .a remarkable, irreplaceable document . . ."
