“In addressing a part of the First Indochina War that normally gets lumped into the larger context of the losing French effort, In the Year of the Tiger provides a significant and valuable addition to the understanding of the French experience in Indochina.”—James H. Willbanks, author of A Raid Too Far, Operation Lam Son 719 and Vietnamization in Laos
“A splendid, captivating military history of the so-called First Indochina War, In the Year of the Tiger underscores the importance of adaptation, modesty, patience, and prudence in waging counterinsurgency warfare. William Waddell offers invaluable lessons for making sense of the course and outcome even of the United States’ later wars in Vietnam and other theaters.”—Pierre Asselin, author of Hanoi’s Road to the Vietnam War, 1954–1965
