Between Two Fires, The Unheard Voices of Vietnam, Ly Qui Chung, Praeger, 1970,PB

Description: For Sale: Between Two Fires, The Unheard Voices of Vietnam, Edited by Ly Qui Chung, published by Praeger Publishers, 1970. This is a paperback book in good condition, cover and pages are tight and intact, but the outer closed pages show spotting from weather and age. The cover also shows slight spotting. From book cover: In the long agony of the Vietnam war, the unheard voices have been those of the Vietnamese people, caught in the crossfire of civil war, trapped between massive American firepower and sporadic terrorism and guerrilla attack. It was to give expression to these voices that the Saigon newspaper Tieng Noi Dan Toc (Voice of the People) in 1969 sponsored a short-story contest in which ordinary Vietnamese were given an opportunity to express their views on the war. The nine stories in this collection are the prize-winners among the 75 published; not long after their publications, the Saigon government closed the paper indefinitely. I have hundreds of books that have been handed down through generations, plus recent books. Some are in great condition, some showing much use and some damage. A lot of the books came from homes, bay or beach houses along the Gulf Coast, back before air conditioning, where there is high humidity and severe weather at times. Especially some of the older books from the early 1900's. We were taught that books are very valuable and should never be destroyed as long as they are still readable.
