"I was a very young child during the Vietnam War and didn't have much idea that there was a war going on until it was over. Then people didn't talk about it much, until the 80s, when it became fodder for a rash of Hollywood films such as "Platoon" and "Full Metal Jacket." Needless to say, these did not inform me about the war. So, thank goodness for this amazing book, which I read in the very early 90's. Pilger, a journalist stationed in Vietnam for the duration of the conflict, takes the reader on a journey from the origins of the war right up to its end and aftermath. It is brilliantly written, enlightening, and absolutely devastating. A must-read for anyone who wants a better understanding of the Vietnam War."
"Every American should read the chapters on Vietnam in this book! The rest is interesting but you have to have some background knowledge of history to understand."
