The Girl in the Picture

Remarkable story during Vietnam war wrote by Denise Chong-The Girl in the Picture: The Remarkable Story of Vietnam's Most Famous Casualty. For those who care about Vietnam War in 1970s should know about the picture snaped by war journalist (Nick Ut) in Vietnam that shocked the world about the reality of American soldiers or to be more fair-what American did in Vietnam during the war. This is the book about the girl (Kim Phuc) that suffering from 'misplaced napalm bomb' in small village called Trang Bang, Southern Vietnam. The author started the story about Kim Phuc with her small village & her family daily rutin too war time event & focused on 'another day of killing Cong (Vietcong)', & her life after the war-she migrated and now shes Canadian. More than this, the author also described & discussed on American-Vietnam (Communist Party) policy in their relationships during & after the war. Just to remind you out there that this is not history book-this is non-fiction book which i think very valuable to understand the ground story of the war. Read it.
