Book excerpt: The acclaimed Vietnam Journal series from Don Lomax, nominated for a Harvey Award, is collected and presented as a series of graphic novels. Vietnam Journal is a look at the Vietnam War through the eyes of a war journalist, Scott 'Journal' Neithammer, as he chronicles the lives and events of soldiers on the front line during the Vietnam War. Creator Don Lomax based Vietnam Journal on his experiences on his tour of duty in Vietnam in the mid 1960's. In BOOK THREE, Scott 'Journal' Neithammer returns to Vietnam, having recovered from his war injuries, but his expectations of being assigned to a safe area dissipate as he is dropped into the middle of a firefight in the Mekong Delta. Neithammer joins up with a new group deployed in the Vietnam War by the US Navy...the Seals. They're not exactly happy with the older 'Journal' tagging along but orders are orders. The problem is 'Journal' can't really figure out what the Seals' orders exactly are. As preparations get underway for the Dak To engagement, 'Journal' ventures out into the jungle but ends up escorting a pregnant villager to safety only to discover she's really with the enemy. And afterwards, as a battle rages towards occupying a hill that has no significant value, 'Journal' finds he has to deal with both choking gas and Vietcong snipers. These stories plus a short story titled "Dustoff" are included in Book Three. Collects issues 9-12. Published by Caliber Comics.

"Even today, VIETNAM JOURNAL is one of the most gritty and brutally honest war stories ever published." - Brian Cronin, Comic Book Resources. "Vietnam Journal by Don Lomax is the best comic book portrayal of Vietnam I have ever read. It's probably one of the best works ever put down in any art form about the war." - Daniel Robert Epstein. "A powerful collection of stories and history of the Vietnam War, created by a veteran of both the war and of war comics." - Douglas P. Dave, School Library Journal.

Book excerpt: For the first time, the saga of the Tet Offensive is compiled into trade paperback! Tet '68 stands alone yet continues the Vietnam Journal saga as creator Don Lomax uses his six issue series collection to spotlight what many have called the turning point of the Vietnam War. Although it was a military victory for the United States, the ramifications of the Tet Offensive drove American public opinion against the war, led to the highest casualty rates of U.S. soldiers, and re-energized the draft. The Tet Offensive was the beginning of the end to the Vietnam War. Don Lomax's Vietnam Journal has been hailed by Military Book Club, Entertainment Weekly, School Library Journal, Publisher's Weekly, and many others for its realistic and thought provoking approach and Lomax's skill in telling true tales of the war that brought such divisiveness to the American public.

Book Synopsis Defense Relations Between the United States and Vietnam by : Lewis M. Stern
Download or read book Defense Relations Between the United States and Vietnam written by Lewis M. Stern and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2005-08-24 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the hostilities of the Vietnam War ended in 1975, the diplomatic repercussions lasted for several more decades. Eventually, however, the dedicated perseverance of diplomats on both sides paid off. In November 2003, Major General Pham Van Tra, defense minister of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, met with U.S. defense secretary Donald Rumsfeld in the halls of the Pentagon, signaling a new era in U.S.-Vietnamese defense relations. This book traces the development of that relationship in the years since the Vietnam War. It focuses especially on the 1990s, a decade in which the author served as country director for Indochina, Thailand and Burma in the Office of the Assistant U.S. Secretary of Defense for International Security Affairs. His experience adds a personal perspective to the historical and political record. Multiple facets of the relationship between the two countries are addressed, including trade, immigration of Amerasian children, and POW-MIA concerns. Through this honest depiction of the sometimes fractious and confusing policy-making process, Stern shows how both parties came to agree, in the words of Major General Tra, that we "should not allow the future to repeat the past."

Download or read book Vietnam and the United States written by Le Thuy Trang and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-27 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the unfolding new relationship between Vietnam and the United States (US) since the end of the Cold War, discussing how the relationship has emerged as one of the most intriguing facets of the regional geopolitical landscape and how the two countries turned from staunch adversaries to partners within the span of four decades after the end of the Vietnam War. It explains in particular the interplay between international relations factors, such as the US’ rivalry with China, and domestic factors in both countries, which, the book argues, are crucial to understanding the changing relationship. Overall, the book provides many insights into Vietnamese foreign policy and a rich context for those seeking to understand the prospects of closer Vietnam–US ties or actually trying to broaden the vistas of bilateral cooperation between Hanoi and Washington.

Download or read book A Bitter Peace written by Pierre Asselin and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2003-10-15 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Demonstrating the centrality of diplomacy in the Vietnam War, Pierre Asselin traces the secret negotiations that led up to the Paris Agreement of 1973, which ended America's involvement but failed to bring peace in Vietnam. Because the two sides signed the agreement under duress, he argues, the peace it promised was doomed to unravel. By January of 1973, the continuing military stalemate and mounting difficulties on the domestic front forced both Washington and Hanoi to conclude that signing a vague and largely unworkable peace agreement was the most expedient way to achieve their most pressing objectives. For Washington, those objectives included the release of American prisoners, military withdrawal without formal capitulation, and preservation of American credibility in the Cold War. Hanoi, on the other hand, sought to secure the removal of American forces, protect the socialist revolution in the North, and improve the prospects for reunification with the South. Using newly available archival sources from Vietnam, the United States, and Canada, Asselin reconstructs the secret negotiations, highlighting the creative roles of Hanoi, the National Liberation Front, and Saigon in constructing the final settlement.
