Summary:
"The latter half of the 20th century was a turbulent time for
Vietnam
. This small Southeast Asian country once occupied by France found itself divided after nationalist revolutionaries overthrew the colonial government, splitting the country between the Democratic Republic of
Vietnam
in the north and the Republic of
Vietnam
in the south. Worse still, tensions between the two territories gave way to a decades-long civil conflict that would ensnare the likes of China, the USSR -- and perhaps most notably -- the United States. Dig into this globally significant and politically transformative conflict in The
Vietnam
War
. Join expert John C. McManus as he reconstructs the
Vietnam
War
in stunning detail."--Publisher's website.
