Is President Harry Truman to blame for the Vietnam War?  Would things have been different if Franklin Roosevelt had lived another year? Why were Americans helping Ho Chi Minh in the summer of 1945? Author Mark W Sasse delves into these questions and more using his research and personal stories from his ten years living in Vietnam.  

In the Crossing Ideas Podcast, Sasse intends to use his vast overseas living experiences as a lens for understanding our world of today. He is kicking off his podcast with twelve episodes about the lovely country of Vietnam. Sasse lived in Vietnam from 1994-2003 and will use his personal experiences to flesh out many salient points about our culture, government, and society of today.
