520 3  "Nguyen Cao Ky served as South Vietnam's prime minister 
       and its vice president during the years of the Vietnam 
       War's escalation, and of subsequent criticism of the war 
       from the U.S. His memoir provides an insider's look at the
       disputes and corruption within the government of South 
       Vietnam and the diplomatic struggles with the U.S. during 
       this time. Ky, who was also a military pilot and held the 
       rank of marshal, gives insight into the South Vietnamese 
       military as well, criticizing inaccurate reporting on the 
       war and drawing attention to stories that journalists 
       avoided. Assessing the U.S. ambassadors Bunker and Martin 
       and the role played by foreign aid, Nguyen paint an eye-
       opening picture of how American politics and elections had
       a profound effect upon U.S. allies."--|cProvided by
