Beschreibung
Here is yet another look at America's involvement in the Vietnam Warand perhaps a more revealing one. From a fresh perspective Robert Buzzanco chronicles the role of military dissent and that Vietnam was actually a politician's war, going all the way back to John F. Kennedy. Has Buzzanco pulled away a veil so thin as to be previously invisible?
