One of the most acclaimed books of our time - the definitive Vietnam War exposé and the winner of the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award. When he came to Vietnam in 1962, Lieutenant Colonel John Paul Vann was the one clear-sighted participant in an enterprise riddled with arrogance and self-deception, a charismatic soldier who put his life and career on the line in an attempt to convince his superiors that the war should be fought another way. By the time he died in 1972, Vann had embraced the follies he once decried. He died believing that the war had been won.

A tragic story
Revisado: 04-29-22
A tragic story well documented. Unfortunately we haven’t learned our lesson, probably never will. I was there for One year during Tet. The corruption on both sides made me sick. It all sounded familiar, and brought back the sadness I thought I had left behind from that ugly war.
