Trail to Redemption: Love and War in Vietnam -- Richard Stevens

<p>On a midsummer night in 1969 under a full moon, Richard L. Stevens helped capture a Viet Cong guerrilla leader named Hoang Thi Nu, the "Vietnamese Annie Oakley." What he saw her do that night, leaping into a river and running through gunfire, and what she endured afterwards in captivity, changed Stevens's mind about what humans are capable of, and about war. </p><p> Stevens was the sole American advisor to a South Vietnamese unit of 105 "ex"-Viet Cong whose mission was to uncover enemy activity along the Ho Chi Minh Trail, and this fast-paced, real-life adventure story captures the frenzied and fearful flavor of a war in which it was often difficult to know who the enemy was. Trail to Redemption is a story of betrayal, capture, interrogation, imprisonment and escape, and the intertwining paths of a Vietnamese woman warrior and a former U.S. Marine. Above all, it is a story of personal courage, love, and respect.</p><br><br><b>Author:</b> Richard Stevens<br><b>Publisher:</b> Earnshaw Books Ltd<br><b>Published:</b> 12/13/2022<br><b>Pages:</b> 234<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.55lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.59d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9789888769674<p></p>
