"History is written by the victors, but eventually the truth comes out."
--Bui Diem, former South Vietnamese Ambassador to the US
"The Tet Offensive is a standing inspiration to today's terrorists and insurgents. This Time We Win is a direct assault on the logic that transforms U.S. tactical victories into strategic defeats."
--Barry R. McCaffrey, General, USA (Ret.)
"Tough questions and startling answers. Forget what you've heard about the Tet Offensive. Jim Robbins sets the record straight."
--Colonel Jack Jacobs, US Army Retired. Medal of Honor, 1969, Vietnam
"This book is a wonderfully detailed chronicle of how North Vietnam's crushing military defeat at Tet was converted into a political victory in the US which would sap the American will to win. I recommend this book to American veterans still perplexed at this dichotomy as well as to the public. It is truly a great account of this critical period."
--John O'Neill, author of the #1 "New York Times" bestseller "Unfit for Command"
"For over forty years the American experience in the Tet Offensive has been used and abused by those who try to apply the analogy of Tet to contemporary policy. This Time We Win corrects simplistic interpretations of Tet that are often used to create the impression of inevitable defeat in Vietnam and other conflicts. This book deserves a wide readership."
--Brigadier General H.R. McMaster, author of "Dereliction of Duty: Lyndon Johnson, Robert McNamara, The Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the Lies that Led to Vietnam"
