IN JUNE, THE BH&PS IS READING:
Sideshow: Kissinger, Nixon and the
Destruction of Cambodia, by William Shawcross
Although there are many books and films dealing with the Vietnam War, Sideshow tells the truth about America's secret and illegal war with Cambodia from 1969 to 1973. First published in 1979, this book is still a chilling read.
