The War of the Gods

In December 1972, the United States unleashed Operation Linebacker II, the most intense bombing campaign in the history of warfare. Over eleven days, B-52 bombers dropped more than 20,000 tons of bombs on North Vietnam, in an attempt to force the country to surrender.

But the North Vietnamese refused to give up. They fought back with a ferocity that surprised the Americans, and they inflicted heavy losses on the U.S. Air Force. The Linebacker raids were a turning point in the Vietnam War, and they ultimately led to a humiliating defeat for the United States.

This book tells the story of Operation Linebacker II, from the planning stages to the final days of the bombing campaign. It examines the political and military decisions that led to the raids, and it assesses their impact on the course of the war. It also tells the stories of the men who flew the bombers and the people who lived through the bombings.

The Linebacker raids were a tragedy for both Vietnam and the United States. They caused immense suffering and destruction, and they left a legacy of bitterness and division that continues to this day. But they also provide a valuable lesson about the dangers of war and the importance of peace.

This book is a comprehensive and authoritative account of Operation Linebacker II. It is based on extensive research, including interviews with veterans from both sides of the conflict. It is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the Vietnam War and its legacy.
