In this new book, Seth Jacobs traces the tragic history of the so-called \"Diem experiment\" from his first appearance in Washington as a penniless expatriate in 1950 to his murder by South Vietnamese soldiers on the outskirts of Saigon in 1963.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Seth Jacobs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0742544486\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780742544482\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rowman \u0026amp; Littlefield Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/21\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 220\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.76lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.06h x 6.08w x 0.63d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2006 pg. 57","brand":"Seth Jacobs","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44120132255999,"sku":"9780742544482","price":47.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_81dc2d71-4d56-4c50-81da-f72d28abb1e9.jpg?v=1687412713","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/cold-war-mandarin-seth-jacobs-9780742544482","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
