Item description from seller

23 cm. [6], 281, [1] pages. Illustrations. The author was a young Mennonite who went to Vietnam to help people in need. Caught up in the war, he was accused of being a North Vietnam spy and a CIA agent. The journal overflows with the stories of people who have sojourned in hell: soldiers and farmers, heroes and victims, teachers and torturers, the doers and the done-to. What emerges is a collective portrait of a modest, inventive, tenacious people who braved three decades of fire-storm. The author spent a total of five years in Vietnam.
