Book, Jensen-Stevenson, Monica and Stevenson, William, Kiss The Boys Goodbye: How the United States betrayed its own POW's in Vietnam
The story began in 1985, when award-winning journalist Monika Jenson-Stenevson came to investigate the case of Bobby Garwood, an ex-marine who escaped from Vietnam in 1979 and claimed to have seen countless Americans still in captivity there. Garwood claimed he had been a prisoner of war, but the American government disagreed - and promptly convicted him of collaboration with the enemy. Kiss the Boys Goodbye reveals a devasting scandal and provides startling evidence that the American government, right up to its highest echelons, knows - and has always known - that American POWs were left behind at the end of the war.The story began in 1985, when award-winning journalist Monika Jenson-Stenevson came to investigate the case of Bobby Garwood, an ex-marine who escaped from Vietnam in 1979 and claimed to have seen countless Americans still in captivity there.

Book, Liska, George, War and Order: Reflections on Vietnam and History, 1968
A proponent of the war, Professor Liska here offers an original conceptual perspective for assessing our involvement, based on an imperial obligation for the United States to uphold world order, as distinct from the quest for colonies. His central thesis is simple: like it or not, the power and wealth of the United States force her to have world-wide interest and responsibilities.A proponent of the war, Professor Liska here offers an original conceptual perspective for assessing our involvement, based on an imperial obligation for the United States to uphold world order, as distinct from the quest for colonies.
