It drew wide interest among Americans in the mid-1960s, when their own country markedly increased its activity in the Vietnam War. The title of the book was taken from the name given by French soldiers to a stretch of Route 1 which had been fortified by their enemies, the Viet Minh. It ran along the central coast of Vietnam from Huế north to Quảng Trị. In French it was called La Rue Sans Joie.
