Synopsis

Moscow Bound is an expose of the US Government's actions, and inactions, on behalf of American POWs and MIAs between 1918 and 1993. It's findings have been cited by the US Senate Select Committee on POW/MIA Affairs, American Legion, Vietnam Veterans of America, General William Westmoreland, VFW, the Oregonian, Washington Post, and the US National Archives.

It's the result of a seven year investigation by Vietnam veterans John M. G. Brown and Thomas V. Ashworth into missing American military personnel in Soviet and other Communist captivity after WW I, WW II, Korea and Vietnam. Its 1,164 pages cover:

• The Bolshevik Revolution, the 1918 American Intervention in Russia, and the rise of Soviet power
• The dictatorship of Josef Stalin (World War II), and the origins of the Cold War
• The Cold War to Korea
• From Vietnam to the collapse of the Soviet Union
• 90 newly declassified US documents dated from 1918 to 1993

It's original publication in 1993 completed the author's mission which he accepted while serving in combat in Vietnam throughout 1968: that if a soldier, sailor, airman or marine has knowledge of a comrade who is in enemy control, he must make every effort to recover that fellow-serviceman, or woman, as he would expect to be done for him.

We dedicate this new edition to any and all surviving American prisoners of war, from every former enemy nation where they were held; the living-dead who were unable to plead their own cases before the American people.
