Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Before U.S. combat units were deployed to Vietnam, presidents Eisenhower and Kennedy strove to defeat a communist-led insurgency in Laos. This impoverished, landlocked Southeast Asian kingdom was geopolitically significant because it bordered more powerful communist and anticommunist nations…. The Ho Chi Minh Trail, which traversed the country, was also a critical route for North Vietnamese infiltration into South Vietnam.In So Much to Lose: John F. Kennedy and American Policy in Laos, William J. Rust continues his definitive examination of U.S.-Lao relations during the Cold War, providing an extensive analysis of their impact on US policy decisions in Vietnam. He discusses the diplomacy, intelligence operations, and military actions that led to the Declaration on the Neutrality of Laos, signed in Geneva in 1962, which met President John F. Kennedy's immediate goal of preventing a communist victory in the country without committing American combat troops. Rust also examines the rapid breakdown of these accords, the U.S. administration's response to their collapse, and the consequences of that response.At the time of Kennedy's assassination in 1963, U.S. policy in Laos was confused and contradictory, and Lyndon B. Johnson inherited not only an incoherent strategy, but also military plans for taking the war to North Vietnam. By assessing the complex political landscape of Laos within the larger context of the Cold War, this book offers fresh insights into American foreign policy decisions that still resonate today.

Bill Rust is the author of five books about US relations with Southeast Asian nations. Born in Washington, D.C., he began his editorial career at U.S. News and World Report, joining the Book Division as a researcher and subsequently contributing retrospective articles on the Vietnam War to the magazine. His most recent book, "The Mask of Neutrality: The United States and Decolonization in Indonesia, 1942-1950," is a deeply researched account of official US relations with Indonesia before, during, and after that nation's revolution. Like Rust's earlier histories, "The Mask of Neutrality" is an "origin story" that shows the beginning of America's disastrous engagement with Southeast Asia in the middle of the twentieth century. This book examines America's Vietnam policy under the Kennedy administration, and provides the historical focus to address critical and enduring speculations on what course of action President Kennedy might have pursued had his presidency not been foreshortened by assassination. "Rust's Book, Kennedy in Vietnam, based on thousands of hours of interviews he and his colleagues at the magazine U.S. News and World Report conducted with former officials who had served in the Kennedy and Johnson administrations, provided the first sustained analysis of Kennedy's policies and the fullest portrayal yet of JFK as a conflicted warrior. Kennedy in Vietnam also offered a fuller account of what many saw as Kennedy's most fateful policy: to support the overthrow of Ngo Dinh Diem in the fall of 1963."A Companion to John F. Kennedy, Marc J. Selverstone, 2014.
