One World Government & Collectivism - G. Edward Griffin

Dear Friends,

I notice that you are a one of the rare young people in Vietnam who still reads and reflects on stuff going in this World. So I choose to share some of my readings for you to reflect on them.

Hope this is an eye-opening experience that might bring you some answers to the chaos you are witnessing around you. Or maybe you chose not to?!

We are all victims somehow of this situation, unless we take action to save ourselves, and people around us.

Best,

Người Mỹ và chiến tranh Việt Nam (America and Vietnam War)

Original Title in Vietnamese: Vũng lầy Bạch ốc - Người Mỹ và chiến tranh Việt Nam
By Author: Nguyễn Kỳ Phong
Book review in Vietnamese by Tú Gàn (Extract):

Khi viết cuốn sách nói trên, ông Nguyễn Kỳ Phong đã cố gắng biên soạn đúng theo phương pháp sử học. Chúng tôi hy vọng cuốn sách này sẽ là bước khởi đấu cho cách viết sử mới của người Việt hải ngoại. 

About the Author: 
Ông Nguyễn Kỳ Phong là thành phần khá trẻ, năm nay mới 50 tuổi, tốt nghiệp về sử học tại Hoa Kỳ, tác giả cuốn “Người Mỹ và Chiến Tranh Việt Nam” và dịch giả cuốn “The Final Collapse”, có tên tiếng Việt là “Những ngày cuối cùng của Việt Nam Cộng Hòa” của Đại Tướng Cao Văn Viên, và cuốn “Indochina Monographs LAM SON 719” của Tướng Nguyễn Duy Hinh. Hiện nay ông là một chuyên viên nghiên cứu về quân sử.

Cuốn “Vũng lầy Bạch Ốc, Người Mỹ và chiến tranh Việt Nam” mới được ông xuất bản dày 577 trang, bìa cứng, gồm 13 chương, khởi đầu bằng chướng nói về sự liên hệ của hai Tổng Thống Roosevelt và Truman đến cuộc chiến Việt Nam và kết thúc bằng chương nói về “Tinh thần người Mỹ trong cuộc chiến.” Tác giả đã cố gắng nghiên cứu các tài liệu trong các văn khố và các hồi ký để giúp chúng ta thấy rõ Tòa Bạch Ốc đã đi vào cuộc chiến Đông Dương, điều hành cuộc chiến đó, rồi đi ra như thế nào. Dĩ nhiên, với một khối tài liệu chất cao như núi mà chỉ tóm lược lại trong 577 trang, không thể được coi là đầy đủ được. Có rất nhiều sự kiện, nhất là các sự kiện nói lên mặt trái đàng sau quyết định của Tòa Bạch Ốc, vẫn chưa diễn tả hết được. Nhưng cuốn sách này đã chứa đựng những sự kiện căn bản có thể giúp chúng ta nhìn lại cuộc chiến một cách chính xác hơn....

The Sacred Willow: Four Generation in the Life of a Vietnamese family

Original Title in English 
by Vietnamese Author: Duong Van Mai Elliott

Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA (April 20, 2000)

Reviews:

(from Publishers Weekly)

In this deeply moving family saga, Elliott offers a microcosm of the history of modern Vietnam. Her great-grandfather passed the grueling tests through which unpropertied Vietnamese men tried to advance by entering the government as mandarins. More than half a century later, in 1947, when the author was six, her family fled their smoldering ancestral village while Ho Chi Minh's troops battled the French. After spending her childhood in Hanoi and her adolescence in Saigon, she studied at Georgetown University in the early 1960s. She and her future husband, David Elliott, moved to Saigon, marrying in 1964; there Elliott took a job with the Rand Corporation in a U.S. Defense Department-sponsored project, interviewing communist prisoners and defectors. Though her parents were staunchly anti-communist (her father served as governor in the puppet kingdom run by the French and later worked in South Vietnamese dictator Ngo Dinh Diem's regime), the author scorned Diem as well as the communists and, by 1969, called for an end to U.S. intervention. Family loyalties were divided: her eldest sister became a hard-core communist, while one of her brothers spent more than three years in Vietcong "reeducation" prison camps. Elliott writes with unsparing candor about forging a new identity, about her nation's destruction and its partial revival with the reintroduction of free-market mechanisms and, above all, about her family's harrowing passage through a long and difficult history.

Vietnam and America: The Most Comprehensive Documented History of the Vietnam War

Original title in English 
by Authors: Marvin E. Gettleman, Jane Franklin, Marilyn B. Young, H. Bruce Franklin
Publisher: Grove Press, 2nd edition (July 14, 1995)





Reviews:
(by Publishers Weekly)

Fearful that an "America ignorant and innocent of Vietnam can again freely move against the self-determination of other nations," the editors have compiled here a history of United States involvement in Vietnam that draws equally on original material and surveys. Included are Vietnam's 1945 Declaration of Independence part of which paraphrases our own. The highlights of other key statements, speeches and treaties of the past 40 years, as well as such widely varied selections as Robert Scheer on the "Vietnam lobby" of the '50s, Seymour Hersh's account of the My Lai massacre, General Giap's recollection of the fall of Dien Bien Phu, and several excerpts from the Pentagon Papers. Although the publication of this material in one volume is immensely useful, the editors' notes are sometimes overbearing, as if the reader isn't trusted to come independently to their conclusion that U.S. policy in Vietnam should be condemned.
(by Library Journal)
The editors of this important anthology participated in the „teach-in'' movement of 1965, which mobilized the academic community against U.S. policy in Vietnam. Patterned after Gettleman's bestselling sourcebook of the period, Vietnam: history, documents, and opinions (1956), this work is chiefly designed to let the facts speak for themselves. Essential documents are reprinted, including the 1973 Paris Peace Accords, the 1954 Geneva Conference Declaration, the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, and excerpts from the Pentagon Papers, together with well-researched notes, introductions, and an abstract preceding each piece. Controversial issues are explored (a whole chapter is devoted to the antiwar movement), but the selections are balanced fairly. Official statements by top political and military leaders on both sides are included. This convenient one-volume compilation of a wide range of largely primary source material is highly recommended for most libraries. Richard W. Grefrath, Univ. of Nevada Lib., Reno
