Book Description:

Ho Chi Minh's epic life helped shape the twentieth-century. But until now, there has never been a major biography of this immensely important and elusive figure. Finally, William J. Duiker, a world-renowned authority on Vietnam, has filled this gap with an astonishing work of history that takes full advantage of information and archives only recently declassified. What emerges is a riveting portrait of a man who went from a tiny village to a place on the world stage alongside the key players of our time: Joseph Stalin, Sun Yat-sen, Harry Truman, Nikita Khrushchev, Mao Zedong, and Lyndon Johnson. - from the inside flap
