Communist forces in the Vietnam War lost most battles and suffered
disproportionally higher casualties than the United States and its
allies throughout the conflict. The ground war in South Vietnam and
the air war in the North were certainly important in shaping the
fates of the victors and losers, but they alone fail to explain why
Hanoi bested Washington in the end. To make sense of the Vietnam
War, we must look beyond the war itself. In his new work, Pierre
Asselin explains the formative experiences and worldview of the men
who devised communist strategies and tactics during the conflict,
and analyzes their rationale and impact. Drawing on two decades of
research in Vietnam's own archives, including classified policy
statements and reports, Asselin expertly and straightforwardly
relates the Vietnamese communist experience - and the reasons the
war turned out the way it did.
