Produktbeschreibung

This book tells the gripping stories of twelve men who were imprisoned in the death camps in Laos. It tells the truth about the hidden war in Laos. Together the stories of these men show how communism destroyed liberty, terrorised an entire nation, and tried to kill the essence of freedom itself. The author contends that the war in Vietnam was a just war and that the soldiers who risked and gave their lives in that prolonged conflict deserve our ultimate respect.
