...Galbraith, "will possibly go down as the most contentious since 1848. We are watching a worldwide revolutionary movement." Indeed, the seeds of dissent seem to be sprouting everywhere and almost simultaneously. West German students riot against a democratic coalition government while their Spanish counterparts make Francisco Franco's twilight years uneasy. Harold Wilson's government bobs precariously in a sea of discontent, while in parts of Africa the old tribalism engulfs the new nationalism. In Czechoslovakia, having overturned one of the most obdurate Stalinist regimes to survive in Eastern Europe, libertarian pressure refuses to subside...

...varied and difficult terrain in South Viet Nam, the jungled peaks and malarial valleys of the Central Highlands would seem least worth winning. Scant crops grow there, and scarcely any Vietnamese live there. The triple canopy of jungle foliage shadows the ground in a perpetual, skyless twilight. But, on the Highlands border where Laos and Cambodia meet, there is a valuable piece of real estate: a natural valley that funnels through the worst border mountains out into the gentler highland countryside rolling down to the sea. Astride the valley sits Dak To, until three weeks ago a dusty airstrip guarded...
