- Epigraph
- "You have allowed your hysterical fear of Marxism to destroy your sense of political reality." -- Chou En-lai to the author in Chungking, China, July, 1940
- First words
- AUTHOR'S NOTE -- Many people -- some in Vietnam and some in the United States -- have helped me write this book. Unfortunately I cannot thank my Vietnamese friends by name. If I did this they might receive a midnight visit fr... (show all)om General Loan's men or from Vice President Ky's secret police.
- Last words
- (Click to show. Warning: May contain spoilers.)We must think about this. We cannot carp and flail and start looking for someone on whom to place the blame for America's shameful and unnecessary failures. The people who have botched things up are your neighbors, your friends, your relatives, your countrymen. They are ourselves.
