A vividly illustrated book which offers a clear and engaging account of the full expanse of the Vietnam War—its causes, conduct, and consequences on the warfront and at home. Six short essays and nearly fifty chronological entries highlight the places, people, and key events and questions of the era.
Jumps around quite a bit - had the potential to be a really nice and concise history of the war, but ended up being really just a companion to the exhibition.
Generally OK but feels too brief for me. The pictures and many illustrations available are eye-catching and make it a more interesting read so it's never too dry
