Spear-Carrier in Viet Nam. Memoir of an American Civilian in Country, 1967 and 1970-1972, Paperback

Part history, part memoir, this book chronicles an overlooked aspect of US involvement in Vietnam, with a focus on the war victims and refugees most tragically affected by the carnage. The author recounts his two years "in-country" as an aid worker and describes how the humanitarian effort was conducted and why it failed.
