Download or read book Herbicidal Warfare written by Paul F. Cecil and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1986 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1961, the United States Air Force began using chemical herbicides as a weapon in South-east Asia. The tactic lasted only ten years, but the controversy it provoked continues to this day. Criticisms range from the charge that the herbicides did irreparable damage to the Asian environment to the recent "Agent Orange" lawsuits claiming that the chemicals have caused U.S. servicemen and their children physical and mental impairments. While much attention has been given to these claims, little light has been cast on the actual history of the herbicidal operation, code-named RANCH HAND. This book is the history of this unique aviation mission, from its conception to its termination. It describes how the operation dispensed over 11 million gallons of chemicals over Southeast Asian jungles and croplands while flying unarmed, obsolescent aircraft at tree-top level. Based on the author's own experiences, hundreds of interviews with RANCH HAND veterans, and careful research of declassified primary sources, this book provides a comprehensive and in-depth view of the men who flew the missions and their role in the events in Southeast Asia. It also reviews the scientific reaction to herbicidal warfare and hoe the controversy that ensued eventually caused the cancellation of the operation. -- from Book Jacket.

Book excerpt: She's the beauty with a smile that won't quit and a heart of gold. He's the cranky, prideful rancher who wants help from no one. Trouble is... she won't take no for an answer. Quirky, six-foot-tall Clara Miller has it all. And although she's on the bigger side, she's gorgeous from head to toe. She's got all the money she could ever need, a successful ranch where she gets to tend to her chickens and vegetable garden, and a Papa and siblings who are loving and supportive. So why does it still feel like something's missing? Nathan Westbrook is living a nightmare. He's angry, bitter, scarred, in constant pain, and beyond frustrated. Getting struck by lightning will do that to a man. He was practically self-sustained on his homestead. Now it's tough just getting dressed everyday, much less getting the animals fed and the gardens tended to. When Clara volunteers at church to take a meal and groceries to a man on the outskirts of town, she has no idea what she's in for. After all, she just wants to be of service. And seeing folks enjoy her food makes her day. Nathan doesn't want anyone's help. He's a loner and likes it that way. Then one day, she busts down his door, and everything changes. Can this country beauty tame the beast Nathan has become? Or will he run her off before she has the chance...

After growing up on her uncle's ranch, Carol McCreedy has longed for a place of her own to put down roots, raise a big herd of cattle, maybe a few horses, and make a name for herself. And now, with the ink barely dry on the deed, she's finally made it happen. But leaving Snowbrook to go off on her own isn't going to be easy. Not only is she in debt up to her eyeballs, but she won't have the excuse to flirt with her uncle's long-time ranch hand, Harlan Lee. He's a mighty fine specimen—rugged, hard-working, and drop-dead sexy, and Carol's going to miss watching him ride the fences and haul bales of hay in the Colorado sun. There's heat between them, she can feel it every time his eyes meet hers and that slow smile spreads across his amazing mouth. But she just can't get the man to make a move. Harlan has held his feelings in check for about as long as he can take. And now that the beautiful, headstrong Carol is leaving Snowbrook, it's time to cowboy up. She deserves more than he can give her—all he has is his horse, and a woman like Carol deserves the moon. But he can't let her go without risking one little kiss…and maybe another…and maybe showing her that he's pretty darn good with a rope…
