Decent interval
Book • 1977
Decent Interval is a detailed and insightful critique of the CIA's involvement in and eventual withdrawal from the Vietnam War. Written by Frank Snepp, who was the CIA's chief strategy analyst in Vietnam, the book provides a firsthand account of the events leading up to the fall of Saigon.
It is structured into three parts: Homecoming, The Unraveling, and Collapse, allowing readers to absorb and reflect on the historical context.
Snepp draws on his personal notes, testimony from other key players, and excerpts from a North Vietnamese general's memoirs to present a gripping and objective narrative of this critical period in history.
