Vietnam War / My Lai Massacre -- Book Review
Number of pages:
6
ABSTRACT:
A 6 page paper focusing upon Michael Bilton and Kevin Sim's 'Four Hours In My Lai' -- a book documenting one of the American military's darkest wartime activities ever-- the rape, torture, and murder of thousands of innocent Vietnamese civilians within a one-day period. The writer attempts to evaluate the book's thesis: that is ironic how My Lai seems to be almost forgotten in today's media accounts and historical reflections upon the Vietnam war. It is almost as if the government wants us to forget how barbarically the U.S. military acted ! The horror of this particular incident is described in somewhat graphic detail. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
