At the height of the Vietnam conflict, a complex system of secret
underground tunnels sprawled from Cu Chi Province to the edge of
Saigon. In these burrows, the Viet Cong cached their weapons,
tended their wounded, and prepared to strike. They had only one
enemy: U.S. soldiers small and wiry enough to maneuver through the
guerrillas' narrow domain.
The brave souls who descended into these hellholes were known as
"tunnel rats." Armed with only pistols and K-bar knives, these men
inched their way through the steamy darkness where any number of
horrors could be awaiting them-bullets, booby traps, a tossed
grenade. Using firsthand accounts from men and women on both sides
who fought and killed in these underground battles, authors Tom
Mangold and John Penycate provide a gripping inside look at this
fearsome combat. The Tunnels of Cu Chi" "is a war classic of
unbearable tension and unforgettable heroes.
