More DescriptionThe Vietnam War was one of the most polarizing wars in American history. Readers explore the war's history and impact in this engrossing volume. A timeline of important military campaigns and political decisions runs throughout the book, while more specific timelines detail the events highlighted in each chapter. These timelines are given life through text designed to explain the historical, military, and social context of the Vietnam War. Readers discover the events that preceded America's 12-year involvement in the conflict, the major air and land attacks that defined the war, and the images that brought the war into the lives of Americans far from the front lines.
