One of the most resilient images of the Vietnam era is an undocumented one of an anti-war protester spitting on the uniformed veteran just off the plane. In this startling book, sociologist Jerry Lembcke provides a forceful antidote to the myth that relations between Vietnam veterans and the anti-war Left were unremittingly hostile.
