Personal Review: Major Problems in the History of the Vietnam
War: Documents and Essays (Major Problems in American
History) by Thomas Paterson
this book is such a waste of time, it tells you only the point of view of one's
man ego and his denial of america's defeat by the north vietnamese.

throughout the whole war,the u.s miltary only rely on body counts for there
victory ,hoping the north vietnamese would fear the u.s army and
surrender ,but in the end ,they were wrong ,the nva and viet cong were
determine to fight to the death.
face it,even though the u.s military won many battles,the united states lost
the war and retreated . the whole world is aware of this defeat but only
some american citizen like this author denies this.
many of the vc casualty are infact innocent civilians ,that the u.s military
has covered up by placing nva /vc uniforms and weapons on dead civilians
,then taking photographic pictures of it.
the united states gain nothing from the war ,with 60,000 + dead u.s
soldiers ,thousands m.i.a (s) ,150,000 billion dollars down the drain ,over
100,000 seriously injured soldiers including amputees (missing legs,arms ,
body parts) ,and handicaps ,torn the country apart during the 60's and 70's
,fail to stop communism,fail to protect south vietnam,fail to stop an army
that is 10 time smaller then u.s army,and fail to justified the war in rightious
context,basically the united states gave up and retreated.
the north vietnamese suffered high casualty by fighting u.s army,australian
army ,arvn army,south korean army,and new zealand all by them self ,but
fighting to regain there country for a better vietnam in the future was a well
justified reason to die just like anyother civil war (compared this to
american civil war casualties).
so one's man ego and his obsession of denial will not change the world's
view on why people should think who really won the war,everybody knows
who won this war,and media wasnt wrong at all.
