The world's foremost expert on counterinsurgency warfare analyzes the errors of American policy and strategy in Vietnam. Sir Robert Grainger Ker Thompson (1916–1992) was a British military officer and counter-insurgency expert who "was widely regarded as the world's leading expert on countering the Mao Tse-tung technique of rural guerrilla insurgency". He was a liaison officer with the Chindits in the Burma Campaign, being awarded the DSO and the MC. In 1959, Thompson became permanent secretary for defence for Tun Abdul Razak. In response to a request from President Diem of South Vietnam, Tunku Abdul Rahman, the Malayan prime minister sent a team to South Vietnam to advise on how to counter the insurgency problems. That team which so impressed Diem that he asked the British to second Thompson to the government South Vietnam as an advisor. In 1961, the Prime Minister Macmillan appointed Thompson head of the newly established British Advisory Mission to South Vietnam and Washington. When Thompson saw the effects of the strategic hamlets initiative, begun in February 1962, he became an enthusiastic backer, telling President Kennedy in 1963 that the war could be won. More

Baton Rouge, LA: Louisiana State University Press, 2010. First Printing [Stated]. Hardcover. xv, [3], 435, [1] pages. A Note on Chinese Language Romanization. Maps. Illustrations. Bibliography. Index. In the years following World War II, the United States suffered its most severe military and diplomatic reverses in Asia while Mao Zedong laid the foundation for the emergence of China as a major economic and military world power. As a correspondent for the International News Service, the Associated Press, and later for the New York Times, Seymour Topping documented on the ground the tumultuous events during the Chinese Civil War, the French Indochina War, and the American retreat from Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos. Topping chronicles his extraordinary experiences covering the East-West struggle in Asia and Eastern Europe from 1946 into the 1980s, taking us beyond conventional historical accounts to provide a fresh, first-hand perspective on American triumphs and defeats during the Cold War era. At the close of World War II, Topping reported for the International News Service from Beijing and Mao's Yenan stronghold before joining the Associated Press in Nanking, Chiang Kai-shek's capital. He covered the Chinese Civil War for the next three years, often interviewing Nationalist and Communist commanders in combat zones. Topping was captured by Communist guerrillas and tramped for days over battlefields to reach the People's Liberation Army. The sole correspondent on the battlefield during the decisive Battle of the Huai-Hai, Topping scored a world-wide exclusive as the first journalist to report the fall of the capital. More
