Mr. Marti Demiquels, the author of this book and a dedicated collector himself, has put together not only most of the pieces contained in the following pages, but a complete museum on the Vietnam War as well, amassed throughout an entire lifetime of passionate study and collecting.This book is a stunning visual record of uniforms, equipment and personal memories of the elite forces of the United States during the Vietnam War. It includes an impressive collection of militaria, illustrated by over 1,100 original photographs - many never published before - and captivating texts that fill 250 pages in full color.
The Associated Press made an unprecedented commitment to reporting the conflict: It gathered an extraordinary group of superb photojournalists in its Saigon bureau and these men created one of the great photographic legacies of the twentieth century. Collected here are images that tell the human story of the Vietnam War, as we watch the American presence in the war swell from a trickle of military advisers in the late 1950s, through dramatic operations involving thousands of soldiers in the 1960s, to the fall of Saigon in 1975. These are pictures that both recorded and made history, taken by unbelievably courageous photojournalists. In a moving essay, writer Pete Hamill, who reported from Vietnam in 1965, celebrates their achievement, focusing on five masters who took many of the photographs in the book: Horst Faas, Henri Huet, Eddie Adams, Nick Ut, and Phuoc Van Dang.
