Play the Red Queen
Author: Juri Jurjevics
Publisher: Soho Press
ISBN: 164129213X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 370
Book Description
The posthumous masterwork by critically acclaimed author, storied publisher, and Viet Nam veteran Juris Jurjevics—the story of two American GI cops caught in the corrupt cauldron of a Vietnamese civil war stoked red hot by revolution. Viet Nam, 1963. A female Viet Cong assassin is trawling the boulevards of Saigon, catching US Army officers off-guard with a single pistol shot, then riding off on the back of a scooter. Although the US military is not officially in combat, sixteen thousand American servicemen are stationed in Viet Nam “advising” the military and government. Among them are Ellsworth Miser and Clovis Robeson, two army investigators who have been tasked with tracking down the daring killer. Set in the besieged capital of a new nation on the eve of the coup that would bring down the Diem regime and launch the Americans into the Viet Nam War, Play the Red Queen is Juris Jurjevics’s capstone contribution to a lifelong literary legacy: a tour-de-force mystery-cum-social history, breathtakingly atmospheric and heartbreakingly alive with the laws and lawlessness of war.

The Montagnard People
Author: Walter M. Plunkett (Jr.)
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Montagnards (Vietnamese people)
Languages : en
Pages : 24
Book Description
Scattered throughout the Central Highlands of South Vietnam is a group of people alternately called Montagnards, Highlanders and in some cases moi, the Vietnamese word meaning savage. Many American military advisors serving in the Highlands have worked with these people and the American public is vaguely aware of their existence through the televised war and a few vivid magazine articles highlighting their plight in the war. Most people hold the opinion that while the Montagnards are a kind, generous and hospitable people they are at the same time poor ignorant savages living in the jungle still practicing their stone age ways. They are in many ways primitive and unsophisticated. They are also a people struggling for the right to live their lives in peace and harmony.

Saigon to Pleiku
Author: David Grant Noble
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476683735
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 205
Book Description
Initially stationed at the U.S. Army's counterintelligence headquarters in Saigon, David Noble was sent north to launch the army's first covert intelligence-gathering operation in Vietnam's Central Highlands. Living in the region of the Montagnards--Vietnam's indigenous tribal people, deemed critical to winning the war--Noble documented strategic hamlets and Green Beret training camps, where Special Forces teams taught the Montagnards to use rifles rather than crossbows and spears. In this book, he relates the formidable challenges he confronted in the course of his work. Weaving together memoir, excerpts from letters written home, and photographs, Noble's compelling narrative throws light on a little-known corner of the Vietnam War in its early years--before the Tonkin Gulf Resolution and the deployment of combat units--and traces his transformation from a novice intelligence agent and believer in the war to a political dissenter and active protester.
