Captivating from start to finish. - Major General (Ret.) Viet Luong

With the fall of Saigon in April of 1975, Vietnamese refugees flooded into US military bases to await resettlement in the United States. Ordell and Mary Kluver, from a small town in Western Oklahoma, soon found themselves immersed in a project to sponsor and help resettle 250 Vietnamese refugees in Clinton, Oklahoma, and the surrounding areas. They arranged for housing, education, and job placement. This book is their account, detailing the economic, social, and cross-cultural issues that arose from such an experience and exploring the genuine difficulties of introducing the Vietnamese people, with strong cultural traditions, into a vastly different, largely rural culture in the US.
