This volume convincingly disproves the claim that America's defeat in Vietnam was the result of a failure of will because national leaders, principally Lyndon B. Johnson, forced the troops to 'fight with one hand tied behind their backs.'

Presenting a history of the role America played in the Vietnam War, this text examines how the consequences of the war changed American culture and society. The major political and social movements of the 1960s - liberalism, Civil Rights, and youth culture - are examined.
