Buffalo, Carry Me Home, A Tale of the Fall of Saigon is a compelling fictional account of the tragedy of Vietnam. It is a story--at once intimate and universal--not only of the devastation of villages, families and their children, but also of the heroism of these besieged people and their rescuers. The central character is an American journalist and war correspondent, whose personal struggle with cultural identity unfolds as his involvement with the Vietnamese people deepens. This is a tale of courage, heartbreak and hope that had to be told.
