...South Viet Nam (TIME Oct. 2, 1964). Trouble could break out again, for the rebels demand more aid and more jobs as well as autonomous statehood for the lightly populated areas they occupy. But pointing to dozens of government posts recently handed to the montagnards, Ky for the moment had damped the smoldering discontent. His ultimate aim: to use the breathing space to bring all the montagnards back into the front line against the Viet Cong...

It is also American landscape drawing at its best accurate, knowledgeable, architectural and withal a key link in the chain of shared experience that finally defined America as a nation...
