First published for the twenty-fifth anniversary of the fall of Saigon, this unique two-volume anthology from the Library of America evokes a turbulent and controversial period in American history and journalism. Drawn from original newspaper and magazine reports and contemporary books, this volume along with its companion brings together the work of over eighty remarkable writers to create an unprecedented mosaic view of the war and its impact on an increasingly fractured American society. The first volume traces the deepening American involvement in South Vietnam from the first deaths of American advisers in 1959 through the controversial battle of ?Hamburger Hill? in 1969. Malcolm Browne, Neil Sheehan, and David Halberstam report on the guerrilla warfare of the early 1960s; Jack P. Smith, Ward Just, and Peter Arnett experience the terrors of close-range combat in the Central Highlands; Marguerite Higgins and Frances FitzGerald observe South Vietnamese politics; Jonathan Schell records the destructive effects of American firepower in Quang Ngai; Tom Wolfe captures the cool courage of navy pilots over North Vietnam. Writers who covered the bitter controversy at home are included as well?Meg Greenfield describing an early teach-in, Norman Mailer at the Pentagon March, Jeffrey Blankfort exploring the sorrowful impact of the war on a small town in Ohio. Thomas Johnson and Wallace Terry examine the changing attitudes of African-American soldiers fighting America?s first fully integrated war. Included in full is Daniel Lang?s Casualties of War, the haunting story of a five-man reconnaissance patrol choosing between good and evil. This volume contains a detailed chronology of the war, historical maps, biographical profiles of the journalists, explanatory notes, a glossary of military terms, an index, and a 32-page insert of photographs of the correspondents, many from private collections and never before seen. * HIGHEST PRAISE: "This splendid collection testifies to the courage, endurance & swallowed anger of an extraordinary group of writers, who, by sharing the agony, earned their right to report it." - John LeCarre * SHIPPING: MNEMOSYNE carefully wraps, labels & custom-packages this fine book for FREE domestic shipment via USPS MEDIA MAIL or USPS PRIORITY MAIL for a below-cost additional fee & internationally via USPS FIRST CLASS AIRMAIL. …

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Mike Lindsay wrote the first three books of this murder-mystery series coming directly from his forty-plus years of forensic experience as a police officer, crime scene specialist, investigator, college criminal justice instructor, and academy crime scene instructor. More than being just a technically correct murder-mystery investigation, this saga then transitions into revealing the end-time prophecies that clearly announce the deep-state's next steps towards a one-world takeover. Mike especially wants his readers to get a glimpse into what will be happening in our world over the next two to three years. Subjects like human genetic engineering (and corruption), digital currency, Artificial Intelligence, religious persecution, and the World Health Organization's sovereignty expansion are all explained in relationship to the developing 'New World Order,' through the fictional storyline of these books. This complex murder whodunit (a historical fiction) is actually solved by looking at 2500-year-old prophecies and comparing those to current real-world events. Readers will be surprised to find that by the end of this tale of deep-state conspiracies, they will also have a working understanding of latter-day prophecy that will substantially exceed what most pastors, priests, and bishops know today. Want to know more of what is soon to come in our distressed world Dive into any of the books in this series, and these schemes become clear. Quinn, Ellie (illustratore).…
