into Vietnam s place in America s self-image How did the Vietnam
War change the way we think of ourselves as a people and a nation?
In American Reckoning, Christian G. Appy author of Patriots, the
widely praised oral history of the Vietnam War examines the war s
realities and myths and its lasting impact on our national
self-perception. Drawing on a vast variety of sources that range
from movies, songs, and novels to official documents, media
coverage, and contemporary commentary, Appy offers an original
interpretation of the war and its far-reaching consequences for
both our popular culture and our foreign policy. Authoritative,
insightful, and controversial, urgently speaking to our role in the
world today, American Reckoning invites us to grapple honestly with
the conflicting lessons and legacies of the Vietnam War."
