Book Synopsis Last Man Out by : James E. Parker
Book excerpt: Last Man Out is the remarkable story of Jim Parker, a former C.I.A. agent and the last man to leave Vietnam. The author explains how the agency worked behind the scenes to assist the military in the war. Last Man Out also explores the anti-war movement back home and its effect on how the war was conducted. Parker makes the point that the price paid in Vietnam ultimately caused the collapse of the Soviet Union, rid the country of Lyndon Johnson and enabled the U.S. to gain a foothold in China.
