Great use of sources and very balanced book!

I've read many history books over the years. Some were rather dry and not that captivating; however, this book exceeded my expectations. The author uses a plethora of sources that he weaves into the story telling. From interviews, to photos, to statistics. The author provides a very balanced perspective that makes you want to delve deeper into the subject matter. Overall, i'd suggest this to anyone interested in history in general. And this is a must read for those interested in US History or SE Asian History. Its a quick read as well.

All Perspectives

This was an enlightening account of the issues surrounding the Vietnam War, the reasons for American involvement and the inside track to the Vietnamese perspective. The author explains the facts all sides needed to contend with, but left the conclusions to the reader to decide what was the right thing to do. This is a fair representation of the debate over the Vietnam War.

Great book

I thought the book was excellent~ in writing and content quality. I plan to use this book with my 10th grade students as I feel that it provides an excellent look into not only the war, but the politicians and American people at that time.

Smooth moving, interesting & very informative.

I learned about the politics of war for the people in Vietnam, and the price paid for actions taken by those in power. It also explained the reactions of all those involved.
