Work Description

The is the most thorough and yet scholarly overview of the wars in Vietnam from the French to the Americans and why and how America lost the war mostly by not understanding Vietnam and her people and culture but also not understanding war and ourselves and not realizing that the only true victory is winning the hearts of the people, the majority of the people.
