This review is from: From Enemy to Friend: A North Vietnamese Perspective on the War (Hardcover)
Tin Bui was the press officer that received the surrender of the last South Vietnamese President in 1975. He was also present at Dien Bien Phu and several other historic battles. This book is unique in the sense it is organized in a question and answer format. Tin Bui answers questions about the war from the perspective of a North Vietnamese officer. In this book, he generally does not praise the American soldier who fought in the war. He does praise the ARVN as courageous adversaries. He also states that the bombing campaigns did not influence the North Vietnamese leaders. Several other answers were also hard to believe. However, he is speaking as a member of the opposing force.This is an OK read on the war. One generally gets a sense of what the opposing force in the Vietnam War was thinking. I did enjoy viewing his perspectives on certain things, although I had a hard time believing some of them. |
