本书由谷歌翻译软件翻译。被《华盛顿邮报》评为年度最佳书籍之一。越南战争在二十世纪历史中占据着中心地位。这场冲突持续了三十年,吸引了世界所有强国,其中两个国家——首先是法国,然后是美国——试图制服越南革命军队。对于法国来说,这场失败标志着其殖民帝国的有效终结,而对于美国来说,这场战争在其政体上留下了一个至今仍未愈合的伤口。它是怎么发生的?著名学者弗雷德里克·洛格瓦尔(Fredrik Logevall)利用多个国家新近获得的外交档案并充分利用已出版的文献,追踪了导致两个西方国家在越南迷失方向的道路。《战争余烬》以 1919 年的凡尔赛和会为背景,年轻的胡志明试图向伍德罗·威尔逊总统递交越南独立请愿书。故事结束于 1959 年,越共在西贡郊外的一个前哨基地遭到伏击,两名美国军官身亡,他们的名字将成为第一个刻在越战纪念碑黑色花岗岩上的人。在接下来的数年里,政治、军事和外交上的操纵和误判,各方领导人都犯了一系列错误,使本来可以避免的斗争变成了血腥而无休止的现实。洛格瓦尔带我们走进了战争委员会,并让我们在和平谈判破裂的会议桌上占有一席之地。他生动地再现了法国在印度支那最后几年最血腥的战斗,并展示了一系列美国领导人如何从早期就做出了灾难性的政策选择,使美国走上了与历史相冲突的道路:哈里·杜鲁门 (Harry Truman) 推翻富兰克林·德拉诺 (Franklin Delano) 的致命决定罗斯福的政策并承认法国在二战后返回印度支那的权利;德怀特·艾森豪威尔为让巴黎继续参与战斗做出了巨大的努力,并在法国在奠边府惨败后加大了美国的介入力度;参议员约翰·F·肯尼迪的想法发生了奇怪的转变,这导致他作为总统扩大了这一承诺,尽管他公开表示对西方干预东南亚的疑虑。《战争余烬》是一部关于浪费机会和悲剧性误判的史诗故事,由一群具有传奇色彩的人物组成,深入研究历史记录,为围绕一个西方列强在越南的灭亡和越南战争的悬而未决的问题提供了明确的答案。另一个人的到来。这本书将成为未来几年这场斗争起源的权威编年史。 对《战争余烬》的提前赞扬“弗雷德里克·洛格瓦尔从美国、法国和越南的资料中收集到了关于法国在印度支那的九年战争和法国在印度支那的故事的精彩记述。那个时期的美国政治家如何让这个国家陷入泥潭。”——尼尔·希恩,《灿烂的谎言》一书的作者,普利策奖和国家图书奖获得者“弗雷德里克·洛格瓦尔是一位出色的作家和历史学家。在他关于美国越南战争起源的新书中,他从法国人、越南人和美国人的角度,对法国战争及其后果进行了引人入胜、戏剧性的描述。洛格瓦尔利用以前未开发的资料和对外交历史的深入了解,以毁灭性的方式展示了美国是如何走上越南之路的。”——弗朗西斯·菲茨杰拉德,《湖中之火》的作者,普利策奖和国家图书奖获得者

WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE Written with the style of a great novelist and the intrigue of a Cold War thriller, Embers of War is a landmark work that will forever change your understanding of how and why America went to war in Vietnam. Tapping newly accessible diplomatic archives in several nations, Fredrik Logevall traces the path that led two Western nations to tragically lose their way in the jungles of Southeast Asia. He brings to life the bloodiest battles of France's final years in Indochina?and shows how, from an early point, a succession of American leaders made disastrous policy choices that put America on its own collision course with history. An epic story of wasted opportunities and deadly miscalculations, Embers of War delves deep into the historical record to provide hard answers to the unanswered questions surrounding the demise of one Western power in Vietnam and the arrival of another. Eye-opening and compulsively readable, Embers of War is a gripping, heralded work that illuminates the hidden history of the French and American experiences in Vietnam.

The Wall Street Journal "Superb . . . a product of formidable international research." ? The Washington Post "Lucid and vivid . . . [a] definitive history." ? San Francisco Chronicle "An essential work for those seeking to understand the worst foreign-policy adventure in American history . . . Even though readers know how the story ends?as with The Iliad ?they will be as riveted by the tale as if they were hearing it for the first time." ? The Christian Science Monitor "A remarkable new history . . . Logevall skillfully explains everything that led up to Vietnam's fatal partition in 1954 [and] peppers the grand sweep of his book with vignettes of remarkable characters, wise and foolish." ? The Economist "Fascinating, beautifully written . . . Logevall's account provides much new detail and important new insights. . . . It is impossible to read the book without being struck by contemporary parallels." ? Foreign Policy "[A] brilliant history of how the French colonial war to hang on to its colonies in Indochina became what the Vietnamese now call 'the American war.'" ?Esquire "An excellent, valuable book." ?The Dallas Morning News
