Hello,

For an article on Thich Nhat Hanh's current sojourn in Vietnam, I am trying

to get a hold of 2 books:

Vietnamese engaged Buddhism: The struggle movement of 1963-1966 by Van Minh

Pham

The Lotus Unleashed: The Buddhist Peace Movement in South Vietnam, 1964-1966

(Hardcover)

encoding=UTF8&search-type=ss&index=books&field-author=Robert%20J.%20Topmille

r> Robert J. Topmiller

Since I live in Hanoi, I don't think I will be able to get a hold of these

books by ordering them from Amazon. (The first is unavailable and out of

print anyway.) Does anyone have any ideas? Or does anyone have contact info

for Robert Topmiller?

Best,

Robert:

Re: Robert Topmiller - it appears he is at Eastern Kentucky University -

that is if his latest online CV is correct.

Matt,

I've ordered books from Amazon and had them delivered to Hanoi.

Saigon USA by Alfred Hassler, published around 1971, focused on this

subject, with an appendix of various documents. Hassler, who was head of

the International Fellowship of Reconciliation, had close ties with Thich

Nhat Hanh and Cao Ngoc Phuong (now known as Sister Chan Khong) who was at

that time very involved with the Buddhist Youth for Social Service. There

was also a monograph written by Bo Wirmark, The Buddhists in Vietnam. An

Alternative View of the War, written in 1974 and published by War

Resisters International.
