"Wonderfully insightful and engagingly written book about the delusions that led US leaders to commit American ground and air forces to war in Vietnam. Triple Crown winner: Pulitzer Prize, National Book Award and Bancroft Prize. Not too many of them."
"It is a calm and rational look at the vietnam conflict showing how the culture of the people and ignorance there of played a huge role in the debacle. She also makes some interesting analasis that are valid for West Africa and I bet most countries that were under colonial rule."
"Ingenious study of how ignorant an invading power can be about fundamental cultural differences between them and the invaded. It's a bit dry sometimes, though."
