A compelling new examination of the Vietnam War by 'Vietnam' magazine, America's most distinguished publication on the Vietnam War.
This book brings to life as never before the many complexities - the people, battles and strategies - that made this tragic, heroic chapter in America's history unique.
The book goes beyond the day when the last shot was fired in anger and covers the period when America tried to forget the war and its veterans, the initially controversial Vietnam War Memorial and the ongoing process of reconciliation and healing that has occurred since its dedication.
Includes accounts on the following battles:
- Dien Bien Phu
- The Tonkin Gulf Incident
- Ia Drang
- Rolling Thunder
- Operation Bright Light
- The Siege of Hue
- The Tet Offensive
- The Eastertide Offensive
- And many more
