  • "Phú Yên province in Vietnam was a prominent target of American pacification, an effort to win the 'hearts and minds' of the Vietnamese. This book reviews Phú Yên's storied history with pacification before and during the French colonial period, then focuses on the American War from 1965 to 1975, exploring how the Americans advanced pacification, relying on conventional military forces, and why this effort ultimately failed."
