Illustrated with a section of black-and-white photographic plates, map, and two-color illustrated front and rear endpapers. Translated by Andrew X. Pham. Notes by Jane Barton Griffith, Robert Whitehurst, and Dang Kim Tram. "As much a drama of feelings as a drama of war." - Seth Mydans, New York Times. "If only I had wings to fly back to our beautiful house on Lo Duc Street, to eat with Dad, Mom, and my siblings, one simple meal with watercress and one night's sleep under the old cotton blanket. Last night I dreamed of peace. I came back and saw everybody. Oh, the dream of peace and independence has burned in the hearts of thirty million people for so long." - Dang Thuy Tram, from the rear outer cover. "At the age of twenty-four, Dang Thuy Tram volunteered to serve as a doctor in a National Liberation Front (Viet Cong) battlefield hospital in the Quang Ngai Province. Two years later she was killed by American forces not far from where she worked. Written between 1968 and 1970, her diary speaks poignantly of her devotion to family and country, the horrors of war, her yearning for her high school sweetheart, and her struggle to prove herself worthy of Communist Party membership. At times raw, at times lyrical and youthfully sentimental, her voice transcends cultures to speak of her dignity and compassion in the face of the war's ceaseless fury. The American soldier who discovered the diary soon after Dr. Tram's death defied orders to burn all such materials and preserved it for thirty-five years, eventually returning a copy to Dr. Tram's elderly mother in Hanoi. The diary was soon published in Vietnam, where it became a huge bestseller and a national sensation. Translated by Andrew X. Pham and with an introduction by Pulitzer Prize winner Frances FitzGerald, Last Night I Dreamed of Peace is an extraordinary document that narrates one woman's personal and political struggles. Above all, it is a story of hope in the most dire of circumstances - told from the perspective of our historic enemy but universal in its power to celebrate and mourn the fragility of human life." - from the inner front jacket flap.

"The epic tale of the clash for supremacy between America's railroad titans - an expansive, explosive battle that propelled America into the twentieth century. In 1869, when the final spike was driven into the ties of the transcontinental railroad, few were prepared for its seismic aftershocks. Once a hodgepodge of short, squabbling lines, America's railways soon boomed into a colossal industry helmed by a pageant of speculators, crooks, and visionaries. The vicious competition between empire builders such as Cornelius Vanderbilt, Jay Gould, J.P. Morgan, and E.H. Harriman sparked stock market frenzies, panics, and crashes; provoked strikes that upended the relationship between management and labor; transformed the nation's geography; and culminated in a ferocious two-man battle that shook America's financial markets to their foundation, producing dramatic, lasting changes in business and government. In this magisterial history, Michael Hiltzik brings to life these outsized figures and the era, industry, and nation they defined. Spanning four decades and set against the gritty, glittering backdrop of the Gilded Age, Iron Empires reveals how the robber barons drove the country into the twentieth century - and almost sent it off the rails." - from the inner front jacket flap.
