This is a story of a child during the Vietnam-French war to regain independence. His father joined the Viet Minh Front, so his mom took care of all the children. He followed his mom in evacuating to a very remote countryside, where he worked as a farmer, a little water buffalo boy tending cattle in the wilderness. He obeyed his parents' order to escape to Saigon in 1955.This is a story of a child during the Vietnam-French war to regain independence.

The Anger of High SeaThe book depicts the life of many persons after 1975 and before the Communist change in 1995. The author did not want to leave his country, but everything changed. He was forced to go to reeducation camp. After his release, the Communists did not allow him to return to his career as a high school math teacher, as other officers originated from high school teachers. He worked instead as a farmer and fisherman to feed his children. He built a small, rickety, four-horsepower-engine boat, then organized a group of people to attempt an escape from Vietnam.
