Trade paperback. Zustand: Very good. First Edition thus. First printing thus. Format is approximately 6 inches by 9 inches. 512 pages. Contains over 250 illustrations (some in color). Includes Introduction by Fox Butterfield, Chronology, Biographies, Bibliography, and Index. Also includes chapters on The Price of War; Land Force…s in Vietnam and Their Weapons (by Ian V. Hogg); Air Forces in Vietnam (by Anthony Robinson); The Naval War in Vietnam (by Anthony Preston); and Irregular Forces of the Vietnam War (by Kevin Generous). Fox Butterfield (born 8 July 1939) is an American journalist who spent much of his 30-year career reporting for The New York Times. Butterfield served as Times bureau chief in Saigon, Tokyo, Hong Kong, Beijing, and Boston and as a correspondent in Washington and New York City. During that time, he was awarded the Pulitzer Prize as a member of The New York Times team that published the Pentagon Papers, the Pentagon's secret history of the Vietnam War, in 1971 and won a 1983 National Book Award for Nonfiction for China: Alive in the Bitter Sea, an account of his experience as the first Times reporter allowed in China after the revolution. He also wrote All God's Children: The Bosket Family and the American Tradition of Violence (1995) about the child criminal Willie Bosket. In 1990, Butterfield wrote an article on the first African-American to be elected president of the Harvard Law Review, future president of the United States Barack Obama. This book is a remarkably comprehensive day-by-day chronology, presenting the sequence of events vividly and with thoughtful commentary. The bulk of the book is a day-by-day chronology of Vietnam from the 1940s through the early 1980s, with the emphasis on the French and American involvement in the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s. There are numerous photographs, plus articles on the land forces, air forces, the naval war, and irregular forces, plus biographies on the major figures.
