Summary:
"From the defeat of the Army of the Republic of Vietnam at Ap Bac to the battles of the Ia Drang Valley, Khe Sanh, and more, "Storms over the Mekong" offers a reassessment of key turning points in the Vietnam War. Head not only reexamines these pivotal battles but also provides a new interpretation on the course of the war in Southeast Asia. A blow-by-blow account of the key military events, but beyond that, it is also a measured reconsideration of the battles and moments that Americans thought they already knew, adding up to a new history of the Vietnam War"-- Provided by publisher.
