| Summary: | "Drawing on a wealth of new evidence from all sides, Triumph Forsaken overturns most of the historical orthodoxy on the Vietnam War. Through the analysis of international perceptions and power, it shows that South Vietnam was a vital interest of the United States. The book provides many new insights into the overthrow of Ngo Dinh Diem in 1963 and demonstrates that the coup negated the South Vietnamese government's tremendous, and hitherto unappreciated, military and political gains between 1954 and 1963. After Diem's assassination, President Lyndon Johnson had at his disposal several aggressive policy options that could have enabled South Vietnam to continue the war without a massive US troop infusion, but he ruled out these options because of faulty assumptions and inadequate intelligence, making such an infusion the only means of saving the country." http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0642/2006008555-d.html. |

| adam_text | Drawing on a wealth of new evidence
from all sides, Triumph Forsaken
overturns most of the historical
orthodoxy on the Vietnam War.
Through the analysis of international
perceptions and power, it shows that
South Vietnam was a vital interest of
the United States. The book provides
many new insights into the overthrow
of South Vietnamese President Ngo
Dinh Diem in
1963
and demonstrates
that the coup negated the South
Vietnamese government s tremen¬
dous, and hitherto unappreciated,
military and political gains between
1954
and
1963.
After Diem s assassi¬
nation, President Lyndon Johnson
had at his disposal several aggres¬
sive policy options that could have
enabled South Vietnam to continue
the war without a massive U.S. troop
infusion, but he ruled out these
options because of faulty assump¬
tions and inadequate intelligence,
making such an infusion the only
means of saving the country.
