Huế 1968 : a turning point of the American war in Vietnam / Mark Bowden.

Bowden, Mark, 1951- (author.).

Summary:

With unprecedented access to war archives in the U.S. and Vietnam and interviews with participants from both sides, Mark Bowden narrates each stage of Hue's crucial battle through multiple points of view. Played out over twenty-four days of terrible fighting and ultimately costing 10,000 combatant and civilian lives, the Battle of Hue was by far the bloodiest of the entire war. When it ended, the American debate was never again about winning, only about how to leave. Bowden masterfully reconstructs this pivotal moment in the American War in Vietnam.
