One story is the experiences of author Dr. Marjorie Nelson working in South Vietnam at the Quang Ngai Rehabilitation Center, which provided healthcare and therapy to amputees and children affected by the war. It also covers her journey from POW to "guest" of the North Vietnamese following the Tet Offensive in 1968. The other story follows her brother Beryl Nelson who crewed on The Phoenix with AQAG (A Quaker Action Group) and their experiences sailing the South China Sea to deliver medical supplies to the Vietnamese people. A historical memoir, a family story, a war story, and a historical document, with excerpts from letters, journals, interviews and personal accounts of Quaker action in Vietnam during the late 1960's"--Amazon.com
