It's 1964, and novelist and journalist Daniel Ford has just received a publisher's advance on his first book. He spends the money on a ticket to Saigon. Here is the war as he saw it, including the mission that became the novel Incident at Muc Wa and the acclaimed Burt Lancaster film Go Tell the Spartans.
"A riveting account of the Vietnam War in its openings round. Recommended to students, veterans, and historians." (Annals of Vietnam, February 2002)
