As suggested by the title, this collection of essays focuses
upon American involvement in the Vietnamese War. These essays were
originally written for a symposium in 1988 in which (for the first
time since 1975) scholars from both the U.S. and Vietnam met to
discuss and debate the war and its impact on their respective
nations. Thus, these works (by American authors) though alternately
probing and guarded, are always thought-provoking. They display the
mind at work in its search for answers, explanations, and meaning.
Questions of politics and history (diplomacy, the Tet offensive,
Chinese involvement, U.S. war veterans) are considered and
reconsidered by such authors as Allen Whiting, Jayne Werner, Nyo
Vinh Long, and Paul Comacho.
