Giao Lien: Women of the Communist Underground: Voices from the Vietnam War

Virginia B. Morris

0/5 ( ratings)

A unique study of the female spies who undermined the American offensive in Vietnam, complete with previously unpublished maps showing former safe-houses, secret army camps, and routes taken across Indochinas general headquarters in Hanoi. Using personal diaries, battle plans, and the help of Vietnamese veteran associations, the authors tell the stories of these brave fighters: the woman who blew up a Boeing 707 in Honolulu in 1962 leading to America thinking that Vietnam would invade them on their soil, the woman who guided soldiers during the Tet offensive and who for the first time reveals the official battle plans for it, and the now Vice Prime Minister of Vietnam who spent nine months in a "tiger cage" torture cell.
