In its revised and expanded second edition, this book—first published in 1983—provides a detailed review of the end of Vietnam War, showing the effects of reduced military aid to South Vietnam from 1972 to the Fall of Saigon. Drawing on the author's eyewitness reporting and extensive research, the war's harrowing final months are depicted, when ordinary Vietnamese civilians and soldiers endured catastrophic losses. The largely unremembered wars in Cambodia and Laos are examined, along with troubling parallels between the Vietnam War and America's wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.­
