CHILDREN OF VIETNAM by Betty Jean and Thomas C. Fox Lifton

CHILDREN OF VIETNAM

By

Publisher: Atheneum

Two upper class girls, a Saigon ""hippie,"" the street children (called Bui Doi or the ""Dust of Life""), children injured by playing with flares and unexploded mortar shells and displaced Montagnards -- introduced in quiet case studies which allow thorn to speak for themselves as individuals rather than statistical examples. An exceptional job of reportage.
