The Perfect War - (Military History Series) by James William Gibson (Paperback)

The Perfect War by James William Gibson is a groundbreaking book that challenges the conventional explanations for America's failure in Vietnam.

The author sheds light on how American officials developed a narrow understanding of war, focusing solely on maximizing enemy body counts without considering the political and military strategies used by the Vietnamese.

Through meticulous research and analysis, Gibson reveals how U.S.

leaders consistently distorted military records to maintain the illusion that their approach would prevail.

This thought-provoking book is a must-read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the Vietnam War and its implications for modern warfare.
