Reviews
A well-documented and sound addition to an understanding of the economic and diplomatic factors that explain our ascending commitment to Vietnam in the early postwar period., With original research and new insights, Andrew Rotter's work succeeds in placing the initial U.S. commitment to Vietnam in a larger and most instructive context. One of the most important books about the conflict to appear in recent years., The great merit of Rotter's work lies in his demonstration of how the commitment to supporting the French in Indochina was connected to the economic reconstruction of Europe and Japan as essential elements of containment., Andrew Rotter has written the first introduction to American involvement in Vietnam which employs insights from the field of political economy. This excellent work will be mandatory reading for all who are interested in the origins of the war., The United States became committed to a non-Communist Vietnam on May 1, 1950, when President Truman allocated $10 million in military aid to French fndochina. In this persuasive, richly documented study, Rotter analyzes why the Truman administration took that momentous step.

Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages.
I’ll definitely make another purchase soon!
Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!

WONDERFUL book! Better than described, in just like new condition [not just good]. Packaged very carefully, shipped very securely. Great seller, would buy from again in a heartbeat! No communication occurred, but I imagine it would have been as good as the rest of their customer service. Very happy with purchase, thank you very much!
