"The result of nearly three years' research and experience in Vietnam and Cambodia, this pictorial reference book includes over 150 plates on the arsenal of weapons being used by the Viet Cong and North Vietnamese in the South East Asian theater-rockets, machine guns, small arms, mortars, boobytraps, and heavy artillery. The Bamboo Curtain is parted to reveal the amazing range, from primitive to sophisticated, of the armament the Reds have bought or copied or modified from that of other nations or "liberated" from caches left behind by non-communists forces in their struggle in South Vietnam. With its rare photographs, statistics, and informative comments, this is a valuable addition to any modern collector's library." -Yankee Publishing Co.
