Now in a thoroughly revised edition, this influential book offers a
concise history of the "Vietnam War" as seen by all sides, not just
from the American perspective. Retaining its invaluable account of
the strategies, perspectives, and internal politics of the
Vietnamese Communists based on research in primary documents and
interviews in Saigon and Hanoi, this completely updated and
expanded edition incorporates the avalanche of documentation and
secondary literature in both English and Vietnamese that has
appeared over the past two decades. Distinguished scholar William
S. Turley traces the conflict from its origins in the colonial
period to its aftermath and shows how the local, national,
regional, and global layers of conflict blended into a single event
of great complexity. He takes a refreshingly objective look at
contentious issues and concludes with a penetrating assessment of
the claims, justifications, and "lessons" that scholars, statesmen,
and strategists have advanced since the war's end. More information
is available on the author's website.
