Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. 294 pp., [16] pp. of plates ; illustrated ; 25 cm. ; ISBN: 0394525760; 9780394525761 LCCN: 84-22275 ; OCLC: 11316301 ; LC: DS559.8.T85; Dewey: 959.704/34 ; brown and black cloth with gold lettering, in color pictorial dustjacket ; "Re-creates a remarkable campaign in the Vietnam War, a unique battle fought inside a 200-mile labyrinth of underground tunnels and complex chambers that the Viet Cong dug just north of Saigon. It also tells for the first time the story of America's unsung heroes who fought this war, a small group of specially trained GIs known as tunnel rats, who volunteered to fight hand to hand, armed only with knives and pistols against a dedicated and ingenious enemy inside the booby-trapped blackness of the tunnels. These tunnels, often dug just beneath the feet of the Americans, became the Viet Cong's sanctuaries, barracks, arms factories, theatres and hospitals, all built into a triple-level maze of passageways with hidden trapdoors, seemingly impregnable deep within the earth.Here too are memorable portraits of many of the key figures in this frama--of Vo Thi Mo, the tough and handsome girl guerrilla who unhestitatingly fought and killed Americans, until something happened that made her spare some lives--of Flo Rivera, the little tunnel rat sergeant who broke all the rules to beat his squad into shape and keep them alive--of Pham Sang, the Viet Cong's propagandist-entertainer inside the tunnels--of Dr. Vo Hoang Le, the Viet Cong tunnel surgeon, who finally was forced to perform brain surgery and amputations using household drills and saws and no anesthetics."--dustjacket ; VG/VG.
