56) Vietnam: An Epic Tragedy 1945-1975 by Max Hastings There is no doubt that The Vietnam War was an extremely divisive conflict during the 20th Century much like of Iraq today. As divisive it was the conflict is actually a part of my own family history. My father is Chinese-Vietnamese and his childhood was shaped by the early upheavals of the early years of the war, due to potentially being conscripted my father who was 18 in 1963 was shuffled abroad as a student by my grandfather so most of what happened afterwards remains a mystery . This was eye opening for me as most of my understanding has always been an oversimplification of events coupled with what little my dad tells me.
