Joseph Sherman first visits Saigon, the capital of French colonial Cochin-China, in 1925 on a hunting expedition with his father, a US senator. He is lured back again and again as a traveler, a soldier, and then as a reporter by his fascination for the exotic land and for Lan, a mandarin's daughter he cannot forget. Over five decades, Joseph's life becomes enmeshed with the political intrigues of two of Saigon's most influential families, the French colonist Devrauxs, and the native Trans - and inevitably with Vietnam's turbulent, war torn fate.

On April 30, 1975, the Communist capture of the city of Saigon brought an end to more than 20 years of war in Vietnam. The end of the war reunified a divided nation—and changed the course of global politics, military strategy, and international relations for decades to come. In the six lectures of The Fall of Saigon: The Vietnam War 50 Years in Review, historian Edward G. Lengel takes you back to the final years of the long and complex conflict that ravaged the small Southeast Asian nation of Vietnam and bled disastrously into surrounding countries, altering the region forever.

In this intimate and exclusive remembrance of the Fall of Saigon, celebrated Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Peter Arnett tells the story of his role covering the controversial Vietnam War for the Associated Press from 1962 to its end on April 30, 1975. Arnett's clear-eyed coverage displeased President Lyndon Johnson and officials on all sides of the conflict. Writing candidly and vividly about his risks and triumphs, Arnett also shares his fears and fights in reporting against the backdrop of war.

A pochi giorni dalla fine del conflitto, viene adottata da un funzionario inglese, in Asia per indagare su un traffico d'armi. L'uomo sa che l'unica speranza per offrire a Danielle un futuro sereno è portarla all’estero, e ci riesce grazie a una precipitosa fuga nelle convulse ore prima della caduta di Saigon.

In May 1962, Naval Chief Petty Officer Bryant Arbuckle flew to Saigon to establish a new armed forces radio station. Next to follow were his wife and three boys, Leslie among them. Saigon Kids is the candid, recondite slice of 14-year-old military brat Les Arbuckle's experience at the American Community School during the critical months of the Vietnam War when events would, quite literally, ignite in downtown Saigon.

Policing Saigon isn't Platoon or Apocalypse Now, but the story of Loren W. Christensen's experience as a military policeman (MP) in a city of millions at a time when chaos and fear reigned. As a 23-year-old from a small town in Washington State, the author was plunged into a chaotic city of brawling servicemen, prostitutes, racial violence, enemy rockets, riots, and death. It was a place that would give him a unique opportunity to see up close a different side of the Vietnam War and its effect on the human condition.

The remaining US aviation forces, along with the US Air Force and US Navy and Marine aviation assets, would not be easily removed from the battle. For the US forces still in-country, this is an untold story of heroism, dedication, and refusal to yield the battlefield despite being largely considered by US political leaders as "expendable."

When the former combat pilot and SAS man turned gun-for-hire gives Langley a deadline for its return, the agency think it holds all the cards. An F-4 Phantom jet fighter, an audacious plan to fly halfway round the world, and a threat to dramatically alter the balance of power in the Middle East says they don’t.

Wieder einmal hat sich ein Lebensmüder von der Mangfallbrücke zu Tode gestürzt. Seit dem Wiederaufbau der vierzigste Kandidat, der sich mit einem Sprung in die Tiefe ins Jenseits verabschiedete. Außer Schanuk Lindl, der Betreiber der gleichnamigen Gaststätte, ist niemand besonders begeistert, steht der Ort doch seit dem Sprung in der Klatschpresse, wo man sich in Vermutungen verliert. War es Selbstmord oder gar Mord?

Stephen McAllister was a grunt, a dog handler in Vietnam, tasked not only with fighting what was by then an unwinnable war but with rehabilitating a scout dog named Big Mike whose trauma ran even deeper than his own.

For all the ingenuity and camaraderie, a dark and suspenseful melody plays behind the adventures of McAllister and his unforgettable constellation of young characters, American and Vietnamese.

Byen som engang ble kalt Østens Paris har vært utsatt for store prøvelser, kanskje særlig de siste hundre årene. Før Vietnamkrigen kunne man finne mye å sette pris på: en fargerik historie, en rik kultur, kald øl, fransk champagne og bakverk, en velutdannet overklasse, eksotiske, vakre kvinner i det myke aftenlyset. Og opium... Mye har forandret seg siden den gang, og likevel så lite. Reiseskildringer beskriver steder som har og har hatt en viktig posisjon både geografisk og kulturelt sett.
