NO remainder marks or price clippings. ONLY writing/mark inside book is previous owner's signature in book front on blank page Jo Force. NO tears inside book. Tight spine bright pages. Illustrated with photos. 239 pages. Annotation Dorothy McDaniel led a grassroots movement for the return of her husband and thousands of other POWs from Vietnam. Library Journal Behind this story of a woman's battle to have her husband a Navy bomber pilot released from a North Vietnamese prison camp is the more recent fight by both of them to have the U.S. government involved in the search and release of prisoners they believe are still there. Captain McDaniel was released from Hanoi in March 1973 and returned to active duty with the Navy. He retired in 1981 to conduct an unsuccessful campaign for Congress and then began the American De fense Foundation devoted to patriotic causes. McDaniel describes the resistance of people in the administration to further action on the POW-MIA issue in language rich in belief for this cause. With the recent war and new MIAs in the Gulf this is regrettably a timely subject once again.--Mel D. Lane Sacramento Cal. Bonus Books, Inc. Hardcover‎

Illustrated with photos. 414 pages. Previous owner's name stamp in book front Ross and Mary Ann Myers - Franklin Illinois. NO other writing marks or tears inside book. Dustcover shows mild wear NO tears. Map endpapers. From Library Journal McNamara Secretary of Defense from 1961 to 1967 under both presidents Kennedy and Johnson has remained silent about U.S. policy toward Vietnam until now. This memoir reveals a decent loyal and able man who struggled to remain loyal to the president and yet to get the United States out of Vietnam. When McNamara left office 15979 Americans had been killed in Viet Nam; by the time the United States left Vietnam the number stood at over 58000. McNamara's recollections are put to rigorous testing by his junior author VanDeMark who checked them against the now-declassified written and taped records of the period. Publicly perceived as a "hawk" McNamara documents his attempts from 1966 on to find a way for the United States to exit from the war. The culmination of his effort is a May 19 1967 memorandum to LBJ calling for U.S. withdrawal. President Johnson never sent a reply. McNamara reveals that "I do not know to this day whether I quit or was fired." At any rate McNamara left the Pentagon to begin a successul ten-year term as president of the World Bank. In looking back he holds that "we sought to do the right thing.but in my judgment hindsight proved us wrong." McNamara's unpretentious genuine and touching memoir should contribute further to healing the wounds of the Vietnam experience; it belongs in all public and academic libraries.James Rhodes Luther Coll. Decorah Ia. Copyright 1995 Reed Business Information Inc. Robert S. McNamara the brilliant secretary of defense for Presidents Kennedy and Johnson helped lead America into Vietnam. McNamara believed that the fight against communism in Asia was worth the sacrifice of American lives and yet he eventually came to believe that the war was in fact unwinnable. Outnumbered by those who wanted to continue fighting he left the Johnson administration and his involvement in Vietnam behind. He refused any public comment on the war and for almost three decades he has kept that silence - until now. Drawing on his personal experience and a wealth of documentation - much of it only recently declassified and some presented here for the first time ever - McNamara has crafted the classic insider account of Vietnam policy making. He reveals exactly how we stumbled into the war and exactly why it quickly became so difficult to pull out. We meet John F. Kennedy and McNamara discloses what he believes Kennedy would have done in Vietnam had he lived. We get to know Lyndon B. Johnson and see exactly how the war tore him apart and damaged his entire presidency. We sit in on secret meetings we read private cables and we hear the voices and arguments of the men who battled over America's Vietnam policy. McNamara takes us into the Oval Office for late-night discussions with the president into the halls of the Pentagon as military strategy is argued and into the chambers of Congress as policy is debated. He also reveals his own inner torment as the war effort becomes increasingly frustrating and then utterly disastrous. The result is a book that is not only history of the highest order but a revealing portrait of the trials of leadership. Times Books Hardcover‎
