On this Q&A, our guest was Pulitzer prize winning author Ted Morgan. His 19th book, "Valley of Death: The Tragedy at Dien Bien Phu That Led America Into the Vietnam War," is the story of a 1954 battle where the French were defeated by the Vietnamese resistance forces, ending French rule in Indochina. That battle ultimately led to U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War.

  • really good book, very long, but excellent at providing a readable account of Dien Bien Phu and the politics behind it

  • good reading.

  • Valley of Death is a rare book-a historic book with a mature view upon war and is surprisingly interesting to read.
