A Vietcong Memoir: An Inside Account of the Vietnam War and Its Aftermath
Truong Nhu Tang
"An absorbing and moving autobiography...An important addition not only to the literature of Vietnam but to the larger human story of hope, violence and disillusion in the political life of our era."--Chicago Tribune When he was a student in Paris, Truong Nhu Tang met Ho Chi Minh. Later he fought in the Vietnamese jungle and emerged as one of the major figures in the "fight for liberation"--and one of the most determined adversaries of the United States. He became the Vietcong's Minister of Justice, but at the end of the war he fled the country in disillusionment and despair. He now lives in exile in Paris, the highest level official to have defected from Vietnam to the West. This is his candid, revealing and unforgettable autobiography.Binding Type: PaperbackAuthor: Truong Nhu TangPublisher: VintagePublished: 03/12/1986ISBN: 9780394743097Pages: 368Weight: 0.77lbsSize: 8.00h x 5.24w x 0.76dReview Citations: Publishers Weekly 03/14/1986
