But as award-winning journalist and historian Nick Turse demonstrates in this groundbreaking investigation, violence against Vietnamese non-combatants was not at all exceptional during the conflict. Rather, it was pervasive and systematic, the predictable consequence of official orders to "kill anything that moves." Drawing on more than a decade of research into secret Pentagon archives and extensive interviews with American veterans and Vietnamese survivors, Turse reveals for the first time the workings of a military machine that resulted in millions of innocent civilians killed and wounded - what one soldier called "a My Lai a month." Devastating and definitive, Kill Anything That Moves finally brings us face-to-face with the truth of a war that haunts America to this day.Country/Region of Manufacture: USGenre: HistoryTopic: Military HistoryISBN-10: 1250045061Item Width: 20mmAuthor: Nick TurseRelease Year: 2013 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
