- catalog abstract ""In the years that followed the fall of Saigon in April 1975, thousands of South Vietnamese fled their homes to escape the brutal Communist regime. Many set sail in rickety boats for the South China Sea, where they faced constant, unimaginable peril. Many died and those who survived often found new horrors awaiting in refugee camps. Finally, they struggled against daunting barriers of culture and language as they settled into new countries, far from their native land." "In this book are the personal stories of nineteen who survived. Their stark and moving narratives constitute an unforgettable chapter of human history."--Jacket.".
