Product Description
To Bear Any Burden presents the stories of 48 American and Asian witnesses who participated in the Vietnam War. The veterans, refugees, and officials who speak in this book come from widely divergent backgrounds. In their narratives they relive crucial moments in the preparation, execution, and aftermath of war. We hear, for example, POW Dan Pitzer learning of the American build-up from his bamboo cage; Vietnam operative Nguyen Tuong Lai describing a terrorist run into Saigon; Cambodian teacher Kassie Neou charming his executioners with fairy tales learned from the BBC.
To Bear Any Burden gives us a riveting eyewitness account of the war and also reclaims from this tragic continuum patterns of courage and dedication.
