America's Longest War (1945 to 1975) may seem like Ancient History to people born after the evacuation of Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City). This book examines the con ict, its key events, the presidents who were consumed by it, mistakes which were made, its lessons for the 21st century, and places it squarely into the context of the Cold War.
