Ostracized from Vietnamese society, many Amerasian children, fathered by U.S. troops, have emigrated to the United States; however, only about 2 percent have been reunited with their fathers. Revealing and often poignant, these 38 oral histories here give voice to the struggle that Amerasians and their families have faced.

This review is from: Children of the Enemy: Oral Histories of Vietnamese Amerasians and Their Mothers (Hardcover)
The book Children of the Enemy was incredibly written. The stories of the amerasians were so well captured that you could almost see their life while you were reading. I am a avid reader and have read many books about the vietnam war and it's aftermath, and this book truly stands out as one of the best.
