| Zusammenfassung: | In this volume, first published in 1961, the author reveals how the French military in Indochina fought fierce rearguard actions against ideologically motivated insurgents in the 1940s and 1950s to a far greater extent than their American counterparts later did in Vietnam. However, the lack of coherent strategic direction from Paris in the chaotic years of the Fourth Republic left the military with the task of making political decisions in the field. This new edition of this classic work includes the original introduction by Bernard B. Fall and a new foreword prepared by Eliot A. Cohen. |
