Photo-reportage of the Vietnam war. 223 pages with numerous black and white photographic images throughout. BOOK CONDITION: Fine; a solid, tight, clean copy in a Fine mylar proteced dust jacket. First published in 1971, Philip Jones Griffiths' account of the Vietnamese War was the outcome of three years' reporting and is a detailed survey of the conflict. Showing us the true horrors of the war as well as offering a study of Vietnamese folk life, the author argues against the de-humanizing power of technology and highlights the arrogance and hypocrisy of American imperialistic attitudes.This new edition is a recreation of the original with Philip Jones Griffiths' personal layouts and commentaries. There is a foreword by Noam Chomsky, who was profoundly affected by the book when it was originally published" - Publisher's description
