The China\/Burma\/India Theater of Operations in WWII was a confusing array of competing interests and undefined battle fronts.  The French allied with the Japanese, the Americans worked with the Chinese and Vietnamese Communists as old colonial imperialists maneuvered for power.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMajor Amos Mead, USMC, OSS Agent, on his way home from the mission that saved the Orion's Eye secrets from the Nazis, is thrown into a new and dangerous assignment that has its roots in the White House.  Along the way he meets a woman who will plan an unusual role in the chain of events that could have ended in his death.  The historical basis for the story will amaze you with the fact that the tragic Vietnam War of the 1960's could have been avoided if world leaders, including Truman, had acted differently and not betrayed their Vietnamese allies.","brand":"Outskirts Press, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47158992208112,"sku":"9781935636137","price":6.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781935636137_p0.jpg?v=1763659270","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781935636137","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
