Download or read book The OSS and Ho Chi Minh written by Dixee Bartholomew-Feis and published by University Press of Kansas. This book was released on 2006-05-12 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some will be shocked to find out that the United States and Ho Chi Minh, our nemesis for much of the Vietnam War, were once allies. Indeed, during the last year of World War II, American spies in Indochina found themselves working closely with Ho Chi Minh and other anti-colonial factions-compelled by circumstances to fight together against the Japanese. Dixee Bartholomew-Feis reveals how this relationship emerged and operated and how it impacted Vietnam's struggle for independence. The men of General William Donovan's newly-formed Office of Strategic Services closely collaborated with communist groups in both Europe and Asia against the Axis enemies. In Vietnam, this meant that OSS officers worked with Ho Chi Minh and the Viet Minh, whose ultimate aim was to rid the region of all imperialist powers, not just the Japanese. Ho, for his part, did whatever he could to encourage the OSS's negative view of the French, who were desperate to regain their colony. Revealing details not previously known about their covert operations, Bartholomew-Feis chronicles the exploits of these allies as they developed their network of informants, sabotaged the Japanese occupation's infrastructure, conducted guerrilla operations, and searched for downed American fliers and Allied POWs. Although the OSS did not bring Ho Chi Minh to power, Bartholomew-Feis shows that its apparent support for the Viet Minh played a significant symbolic role in helping them fill the power vacuum left in the wake of Japan's surrender. Her study also hints that, had America continued to champion the anti-colonials and their quest for independence, rather than caving in to the French, we might have been spared our long and very lethal war in Vietnam. Based partly on interviews with surviving OSS agents who served in Vietnam, Bartholomew-Feis's engaging narrative and compelling insights speak to the yearnings of an oppressed people-and remind us that history does indeed make strange bedfellows.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Besides covering the amazing and adventurous life of Ho Chi Minh the work informs the reader of the oppressive French occupation of Vietnam and the later American interferance. With his father's encouragement he leaves his home for the West to discover its weakness. Ho ends up in Paris during WWI and makes contacts with the Communists. He manages to appear at the Versailles Conference after the War to appeal for his countries independence but he is thrown out of the meeting. He goes to Moscow arriving to take part in Lenin's funeral. With Michael Borodin he heads to China to help Chiang Kai Chek free itself of the foreign occupiers. However, Chiang turns on the Communists and attacks them. Running for his life Ho ends up in British, Hong Kong where he is hidden from the Kuomintang Chinese government of Chiang. With WWII Ho is in Vietnam leading the revolt against the French and then the Japanese. The revolutionary forces, the Viet Minh, need supplies and Ho goes to visit General Stillwell in Kuming. In an attempt to get Chiang Kai Chek to release supplies to the Viet Minh, Ho goes to meet the Generalissimo in Chungking. However, he is arrested and languishes for a year in a Chinese prison. With his release he returns to Vietnam and carries on the revolt. With the Wars end Hanoi and Saigon are in Viet Minh's hands and Ho begins to negotiate a peace with the French. The problem is that the French, with American support, turn their back on the settlement Ho negotiated and send in French troops. The United States gives all out support to the French but it leads to their defeat and they pull out of Vietnam in 1954. The U.S. pushed for a divided country and ignored the 1956 election calling for united country. With the influence of the China Lobby and Cardinal Spellman Deim is made President of South Vietnam. Ho and his men fight on and with their victory near at hand President Johnson uses the United States Navy to pull a phony stunt to bring in American ground troops. In the middle of the fighting Ho dies but he knew victory was at hand. At the end of his life he was the same man as he was at the beginning. He was true to human virtues and his country.

Book excerpt: Ho Chi Minh explores the life of this globally important twentieth-century figure and offers new insights into his lengthy career, including his often-forgotten involvement with British intermediaries in 1945–46 and with the United States in 1944–45. Ho was the father of his nation, a major protagonist in the Cold War and anti-colonial struggle, and the promoter of a distinctive Vietnamese form of communism. This biography charts his life from his early years and education in Europe to his establishment of the revolutionary pro-communist movement, the Viet Minh, and his subsequent rise to power. Placing important emphasis on his role as a military organizer while stressing his preference for diplomatic solutions, this book contains detailed analysis of the complex talks with France and failure to prevent the Franco-Viet Minh war in 1946. It also follows Ho’s complex relationships with America, China, France, and Russia, and explores the Vietnam War and his legacy. In addition to providing extensive coverage of the 1954 Geneva Conference, the rivalry between Ho and First Secretary Le Duan, and the 1968 Tet Offensive, Ho Chi Minh is also the first English-language biography of Ho to pay close attention to his attitude to women and their role within the communist party. It is the perfect introduction for students of Vietnamese history and twentieth-century history more broadly.
