This landmark work, based on Frances FitzGerald's own research and travels in Southeast Asia in the era of the Vietnam War, takes us inside Vietnam--into the traditional, ancestor-worshiping villages and the corrupt crowded cities, into the conflicts between Communists and anti-Communists, Catholics and Buddhists, generals and monks--and reveals the country as if through Vietnamese eyes.

This was published the year I entered the world. It is so g*ed depressing that it seems to not have made a whit of difference in changing the trajectory of my country's foreign policy & conduct. There was never going to be a different outcome in Afghanistan or Iraq, just wasted lives, fear, and suffering.

Rarely have I felt so low finishing a book - which is superb, and must have had a dramatic impact upon publication. Of course those that most needed to read the book were free to ignore it. ( )

Very interesting work. It reviews the Vietnamese side and the American side of the war. If you served in Viet Nam I think you are going to feel really bad about the whole experience. ( )

This is one of those works that I am sure I read years ago but have reread more recently for profit. It still remains an essential work for me in regards to the Vietnam war.

When this was written about Vietnam, no one wanted to read about this woman's perspective on what was happening there - later, they realized she was right...too late... ( )

Published in 1972 - before the war was even over - an amazing account of the clash of cultures engaged in conflict in Vietnam in the 1950s and 1960s. Fitzgerald was only in her 30s when she wrote this, but she was well placed to write this perceptive and detailed history. ( )
