Synopsis
This is the first title of a highly detailed yet accessible two-volume history of America's involvement in Vietnam, drawing on cutting-edge research and top secret material to tell the full story from the end of World War II through to the Fall of Saigon in 1975., In Good Faith is the first in a gripping two-volume exploration of the history of American engagement in Indochina from the end of World War II to the climactic fall of Saigon in 1975. This detailed study tells the story from Japan's surrender in 1945, to America's involvement in the French Indochina War to its increasing commitment in the region through to Operation Rolling Thunder, the prelude to the first US deployment of ground troops in the conflict in 1965. Drawing on declassified, top secret National Security Agency material, Sergio Miller analyzes how US presidents and their advisors sought to avoid committing to a full war in Vietnam: how John F. Kennedy balked at withdrawal of support but was adamant the war should remain South Vietnam's responsibility; and how the infamous Gulf of Tonkin incident provoked Lyndon B. Johnson to authorize US air strikes against the North in 1964, opening the door to an expanding American war. Book jacket., This is the first title of a highly detailed yet accessible two-volume history of America's involvement in Vietnam, drawing on cutting-edge research and top secret material to tell the full story from the end of World War II through to the Fall of Saigon in 1975. In Good Faith charts the course of America's engagement with the region, from its initially hesitant support for French Indochina through the advisory missions following the 1954 Geneva Accords, then on to the covert war promoted in the Kennedy years, the escalation to total war in the Johnson era, and finally to the liquidation of the American war under Nixon. Drawing on the latest research, unavailable to the authors of the classic Vietnam histories, these two volumes tell the whole story for the first time, including the truth behind the events of the 1964 Gulf of Tonkin incident, which opened the door to Washington's entry into the war, and which can now be told in full thanks to recently declassified National Security Agency top secret material. Examining in depth both the events and the key figures of the conflict, this is a definitive new history of American engagement in Vietnam. In Good Faith tells the story from the Japanese surrender in 1945 through America's involvement in the French Indochina War and the initial advisory missions that followed. It describes how these missions gradually grew in both scope and scale, and how America became ever more committed to the region, especially following the Gulf of Tonkin incident in 1964, which led to the first bombing missions over North Vietnam. It finishes at the climax of one of those operations, Rolling Thunder , and just prior to the first commitment of US ground forces to the war in Vietnam in the spring of 1965.
