Edited with Stephen Dupont, this book is Page's intricate look at his contact sheets and single images from those sheets, as well as the chronicle and notes of his diaries made about all he experienced during this intense period. It also contains letters from some of the most noted journalists of the time and further ephemera from what became known as the \"first media war\" and the first and last war without media censorship. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePage covered diverse actions with the South Vietnamese, Americans, Koreans and Australians. \u003ci\u003eNam Contact\u003c\/i\u003e explores the period from 1965, before the marines had arrived, to 1969, when American troops numbered over 500,000. This was also the year Page's involvement in the Vietnam War ended, after being injured by a landmine.
