Vietnam: Historians at War
Moyar, Mark
Academic Questions, v21 n1 p37-51 Mar 2008
Although the Vietnam War ended more than thirty years ago, historians remain as divided on what happened as the American people were during the war. Mark Moyar maps the ongoing battle between "orthodox" and "revisionist" Vietnam War historians: the first group, those who depict Vietnam as a bad war that the United States should not have fought, and the second, a much smaller group who are skeptical about this conclusion. (Contains 47 footnotes.)
