Vietnam: The Australian War: The Illustrated Edition (2010) By Paul Ham
This book is a comprehensive history of the First and Second Indochinese wars, written from a predominantly Australian point of view, namely, the First Indochina War and the Vietnam War. It sets the Australian involvement in the war in Vietnam in the context of the American and Vietnamese experiences. The book examines the impact of Australian and American relations on military decisions, the relationship between the two countries' governments, and the aftermath of the war. The author draws on voluminous sources, many of them recently declassified, and recounts the history of Indochina as far back as about 3,000 years.
Now illustrated with hundreds of rarely seen photographs and the stories behind them, this award-winning portrait is transformed into an equally powerful and moving visual record of the Australian war in Vietnam.
