A Lifetime in the Eye of the Storm

History is colored by the nation that is recording it. In America the Vietnam War was chronicled in the newspapers and on television. The heart breaking stories we heard were always about the war from the American viewpoint. When we are able to view historical events from perspectives other than our own we begin to understand that the important thing isn't winning or losing but learning and understanding. Hiep lived her life from earliest childhood at the center of the war. This is her story of love and loss triumph and tragedy. It is the story of all women who have lived through a war with only their steadfast love hope and faith in God to give them the strength to go on living.
