Description:
"No Passenger on the River" is a former South Vietnamese officer's account of the racism he encountered when he fell in love with a senior U.S. official's daughter during the early years of the Vietnam War. Beautifully written, it is a haunting account of the contradictions that undermined the U.S.-South Vietnamese relationship from the beginning, and would ultimately prove fatal. (Note: 1989 apparently is a subsequent publication date. I read the book at a U.S. military library in Thailand in April of 1967.)
