In harrowing detail, Fall describes the brutality and frustrations of the Indochina War, the savage eight-year conflict, ending in 1954 after the fall of Dien Bien Phu, in which French forces suffered a staggering defeat at the hands of Communist-led Vietnamese nationalists. Street Without Joy was required reading for policymakers in Washington and GIs in the field and is now considered a classic.","brand":"Pen \u0026 Sword Books Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49894163251488,"sku":"9781844153183","price":14.44,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/2812\/7264\/files\/9781844153183.jpg?v=1767973746","url":"https:\/\/bookcorner.com\/products\/street-without-joy-bernard-b-fall-9781844153183","provider":"The Book Corner","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
