4 Burchett, Wilfred G. , 1911-1983 THE SECOND INDOCHINA WAR : Cambodia and Laos
New York International Publishers 1970 First Edition Paperback Good with no dust jacket 
Crease top corner back cover. ; 14 x 21 cm.; pg. 204 ; Introduction, index, map. "This is the most complete summary of Burchett's writing on Laos, occupying more than two-thirds of this volume. He traces Lao wars of insurrection back to the early years of French occupation; only with the Japanese occupation did they become organized on a national basis. He contrasts the United States' view that a power vacuum was created in Laos with the departure of the French, with the view of the people of Laos of a struggle for independence from foreign domination. This is a largely chronological account of events in Laos from 1941 to 1970. Burchett's position is quite clear: he supported the Pathet Lao..." Cordell #125; 0717803074

5 Burchett, Wilfred G. VIETNAM : INSIDE STORY OF THE GUERILLA WAR
New York International Publishers 1965 Second Edition Paperback Good with no dust jacket 
13 x 20 cm.; pg. 252 ; Author's introduction to second edition, author's foreword, index, map, photos by the author. "Based largely on an intrepid journey through liberated and contested regions of South Vietnam from late 1963 to early 1964, this book appeared just as American ground troops were pouring into the country in 1965, providing readers with a starkly different view from those being projected in Saigon and Washington. It continues to be valuable for its descriptions of life in NLF-held areas at a time when armed confrontations were still small-scale and local political accommodations common. Burchett also provides us with retrospective interviews with NLF cadres, particularly on the period 1955-59." Marr #454
