Abstract
|
:
|
"The Vietnam War left wounds that have taken three decades to heal - indeed some scars remain even today. In A Time for Peace, prominent American historian Robert D. Schulzinger sheds light on how deeply etched memories of this devastating conflict have altered America's political, social, and cultural landscape." "Using a vast array of sources - from government documents to memoirs, film, and fiction - A Time for Peace provides an illuminating account of a war that still looms large in the American imagination."--Jacket.
