Book Synopsis Creating the Vietnam Veterans Memorial by : Robert W. Doubek
Download or read book Creating the Vietnam Veterans Memorial written by Robert W. Doubek and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its dedication in 1982, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial has become an American cultural icon symbolizing the war in Vietnam--the defining experience of the Baby Boom generation. The black granite wall of names is one of the most familiar media images associated with the war, and after three decades the memorial remains one of the nation's most visited monuments. While the memorial has enjoyed broad acceptance by the American public, its origins were both humble and contentious. A grassroots effort launched by veterans with no funds, the project was completed in three and a half years. But an emotional debate about aesthetics and the interpretation of heroism, patriotism and history nearly doomed the project. Written from an insider's perspective, this book tells the complete story of the memorial's creation amid Washington politics, a nationwide design competition and the heated controversy over the winning design and its creator.
Book Synopsis South Vietnamese Soldiers by : Nathalie Huynh Chau Nguyen
Download or read book South Vietnamese Soldiers written by Nathalie Huynh Chau Nguyen and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2016-03-21 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published on the 40th anniversary of the end of the war in Vietnam, this book brings to life the experiences and memories of South Vietnamese soldiers-the forgotten combatants of this controversial conflict. South Vietnam lost more than a quarter of a million soldiers in the Vietnam War, yet the histories of these men-and women-are largely absent from the vast historiography of the conflict. By focusing on oral histories related by 40 veterans from the former Republic of Vietnam Armed Forces, this book breaks new ground, shedding light on an essentially unexplored aspect of the war and giving voice to those who have been voiceless. The experiences of these former soldiers are examined through detailed firsthand accounts that feature two generations and all branches of the service, including the Women's Armed Forces Corps. Readers will gain insight into the soldiers' early lives, their military service, combat experiences, and friendships forged in wartime. They will also see how life became worse for most in the aftermath of the war as they experienced internment in communist prison camps, discrimination against their families on political grounds, and the dangers inherent in escaping Vietnam, whether by sea or land. Finally, readers will learn how veterans who saw no choice but to leave their homeland succeeded in rebuilding their lives in new countries and cultures.

But now the Vietnam War has reached her home. H&à and her family are forced to flee as Saigon falls, and they board a ship headed toward hope.

Download or read book War Tourist written by Hilary Brown and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2021-09-28 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hilary Brown has filed television reports from every continent except Antarctica. She was once profiled on TVO’s ‘The Agenda’ as ‘Canada’s best-ever female foreign correspondent.’ This embarrasses her. She was one of the last journalists to be lifted by helicopter from the roof of the American Embassy in Saigon in 1975, during the Communist takeover of South Vietnam. One of her ABC reports later appeared in the motion picture ‘The Deer Hunter’ in what Brown calls her ‘fifteen seconds of fame.’ During the 1980’s she was an Anchor for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation in Toronto, an experience she describes as ‘death by hairspray.’ She later returned to ABC News for another 18 years to do the work she loved best: foreign news reporting. She was married to the British biographer and BBC correspondent John Bierman, who she met in Pakistan during the Indo-Pak war of 1971. He became her mentor, best friend, and father of her only child. Their life together, in half a dozen countries over three decades, is a great love story that only ended with his death in 2006. As a widow, Brown continued to work at what she calls ‘the best job in the world’ before she finally hung up her trench coat. Two years later she fell in love with a Canadian businessman who, until the global pandemic, flew her around the world in the relentless pursuit of pseudo-extreme sports for which she was totally unqualified. She says he keeps her in a constant state of excitement and fear, which is just like being a foreign correspondent, all over again. Foreign correspondents are like war tourists in flak jackets,’ she writes. ‘They document human misery, and then move on.’ But many are left with the emotional baggage of guilt, and a search for atonement. This is one of the many themes in Brown’s lively memoir, and it’s quite a ride. To readers of all ages, but especially her own, her message is that life is never over... until it’s over.

Book excerpt: Winner of the Overseas Press Club Cornelius Ryan Award John Laurence covered the Vietnam war for CBS News from its early days, through the bloody battle of Hue in 1968, to the Cambodian invasion.

Along the way, he clarifies the murky history of the war and the role that journalists played in altering its course. The Cat from Huéi> has earned passionate acclaim from many of the most renowned journalists and writers about the war, as well as from military officers and war veterans, book reviewers, and readers. This book will stand with Michael Herr's Dispatches, Philip Caputo's A Rumor of War, and Neil Sheehan's A Bright, Shining Lie as one of the best books ever written about Vietnam-and about war generally.

Book Synopsis The Official Cleveland ABC Book by :
Download or read book The Official Cleveland ABC Book written by and published by Elephia Press. This book was released on 2019 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Official Cleveland ABC Book is a children's book with photos, teaching young children the alphabet. Each letter is correlated with one photo, and all images are shot in Cleveland, instilling local pride and further creating associations in children's minds between a familiar place, thing, or role model and the letters of the alphabet. The words that correspond to each letter are generic, non-Cleveland terms such that a child will learn regular words, and thus the book is useful for all children, including those outside of the city who may receive the book as a gift or as a Cleveland souvenir. For example, the Terminal Tower is one of the city's greatest symbols, the Cleveland equivalent of New York's Empire State Building. But in the book, "T" does not stand for "Terminal Tower" as that would limit the book's universality. Instead, "B" stands for "Buildings" and the corresponding image is that of the skyline which includes the Terminal Tower amongst other buildings. "T" stands for "Train" and the image depicted is that of a Cleveland heavy rail transit train.

Download or read book Australia's Vietnam written by Mark Dapin and published by NewSouth. This book was released on 2019-04-01 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'This book should be read by anyone interested in the way myths become accepted as history.' — Peter Edwards, author of Australia and the Vietnam War Why everything you think you know about Australia’s Vietnam War is wrong. When journalist and historian Mark Dapin first interviewed Vietnam veterans and wrote about the war, he swallowed (and regurgitated) every popular misconception. He wasn’t alone. In Australia’s Vietnam, Dapin argues that every stage of Australia’s Vietnam War has been misremembered and obscured by myth. He disproves claims that every national serviceman was a volunteer; questions the idea that Australian troops committed atrocities; debunks the fallacy that there were no welcome home parades until 1987; and rebuts the fable that returned soldiers were met by spitting protesters at Australian airports. Australia’s Vietnam is a major contribution to the understanding of Australia’s experience of the war and will change the way we think about memory and military history.
