Dixee Bartholomew-Feis is an associate professor of history and Director of International Education at Buena Vista University
"An engagingly written book on the OSS in Vietnam that is likely to become the standard account of this complex moment in the American engagement with the postcolonial world." - Journal of American History "By telling the story of these men with a sense of objectivity and with a judicious eye for detail, Bartholomew-Feis has brought a fascinating chapter in U.S.-Vietnamese relations to life." - Army History "Bartholomew-Feis frequently lets historical figures speak for themselves and interweaves their words with her elegant narrative and careful analysis." - Journal of Asian Studies "The questions the author raises in examining the Viet Minh's war against the Japanese and the French hold their relevance for the modern era as U.S. forces find themselves increasingly working with allies who share a common enemy but not a common end state." - Military Review "Specialists as well as general readers interested in intelligence in the Second World War, modern Vietnamese history, and the roots of U.S. involvement in thirty years of subsequent conflict in Indochina will find this book of particular interest.... Highly recommended." - Journal of Military History"
